Mine Identification Using STIL Technology

Abstract

The overall goal of the Streak Tube Imaging LIDAR (STIL) project is to develop a mine identification capability, specifically to use STIL technology to demonstrate the technical feasibility of providing a tactical mine identification capability to airborne mine countermeasures (AMCM) forces. The projected payoff is a decrease in mine clearance time, an increase in clearance effectiveness, and a reduction in the cost per mine cleared. The resulting system must be is compatible and interchangeable with the AN/AQS-20 volume search sonar (VSS) section.
