Surface & Shallow Water MCM

Abstract

The program provides for developments to combat the threat of known and projected foreign mines against U.S. Naval and merchant shipping in harbors, channels, choke points, sea lines of communications and amphibious and other fleet operating areas. It develops: (1) organic remote minehunting capability for surface platforms; (2) the integration and improvement of systems and support for systems which will detect, localize, classify, and neutralize moored, bottom, and close-tethered mines for use in Mine Countermeasure (MCM) MCM-1 Class and other surface ships; (3) systems for neutralizing mines and light obstacles from shallow water, very shallow water, surf zones, and beach landing craft zones in support of amphibious operations. Congressional plus-up for the Remote Minehunting System program. Congressional plus-up for the Persistent Autonomous Maritime Surveillance program. Congressional plus-up for the Mine Hunting Sonar program. (U) B. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under DEMONSTRATION AND VALIDATION because it develops and integrates hardware for experimental testing related to specific ship or aircraft applications.
