MINE TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

This activity assesses advanced sea mine technologies to maintain expertise in this Naval Warfare area. An acoustic sensing capability for the naval mine Target Detection Device (TDD) is being addressed. Future mine and minefield concepts are being addressed. FY 2012 to FY 2013 funding increase responds to priority naval requirements for new and innovative offensive mining concepts. New investments will address clandestine delivery of mobile mines via unmanned underwater vehicles, remote command and control of autonomous minefields, and distributed sensor technologies to enable fire control solutions for mobile mines. FY 2013 to FY 2014 funding increase is due to initiation of effort for intermediate and deep water minefield concepts.
