Airborne Mine Neutralization System
Abstract
Airborne Mine Neutralization System (AMNS) is a mine neutralization system, deployed from the MH-60S and MH-53E helicopters using an expendable mine neutralization device. The AMNS (Archerfish) will be deployed from the MH-60S helicopter with the capability to neutralize bottom and moored mines using an expendable mine neutralization device. These systems will be deployed from the Littoral Combat Ship and will provide organic airborne mine neutralization capability as part of Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) Mine Warfare Mission Module. This capability will be of critical importance in littoral zones, confined straits, choke points and the Amphibious Objective Area (AOA). Improved AMNS (iAMNS) provides an expendable, reacquisition, identification and neutralization capability against bottom, moored and Near Surface sea mines. iAMNS is deployed from both MH-60S multi mission helicopters and Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV), or any craft of opportunity, using existing common communications, command & control and launching equipment.
