| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Mine hunting, finding, and sweeping are not marginal operations. The assets performing these missions must undertake careful thought and preparation, as “countering mines cannot be made easy, cheap, or convenient.”1 With the current mine countermeasures (MCM) force limited in personnel, material, and money, the Navy needs a new concept of operations that relies more on automated unmanned systems. |
