Mine Technology
Abstract
This activity focuses on developing and demonstrating technology to support on-demand battlespace shaping through advanced undersea weapons. Efforts include command & control (C2), remote control, advanced sensing technologies, compatibility with unmanned delivery options, detection & classification, and targeting solutions. The program, Modular Undersea Effector System (MUSE), is a limited duration effort for advanced mining and responds to recent request for capability from the fleet. The increase in FY 2017 is due to the transfer of research efforts and activities previously conducted in the Advanced Sea Mines Future Naval Capability (FNC) effort (SHD-FY16-OSD Modular Undersea Effectors (MUSE)) from PE 0603673N Future Naval Capabilities Advanced Technology Development to PE 0603782N Mine and Expeditionary Warfare Advanced Technology for further technology maturation. The transfer was made to better align the research within the current DoN RDT&E program structure.
