| Summary/Abstract |
This essay aims to determine the influence of mine warfare on modern naval and littoral operations in the 21st century. A brief introduction to the development of mine warfare application and strategy will be followed by a technical overview of modern mines. Various recent mine incidents and operations will then be examined, in order that the current threat can be analysed.

| Summary/Abstract |
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.

| Summary/Abstract |
The Royal Australian Navy (RAN) is a service that punches above its weight and will receive a substantial boost to its force projection capability.
The RAN has to cover a huge expanse of water, around the 7.7 million square kilometer island continent and Canberra's interests extend into the Solomon Islands, where the RAN supports a regional assistance mission in Operation "Anode," and New Guinea to the north west, the Antarctic, as well as deploying a frigate in the Persian Gulf supports the campaign against terrorism by operating in Operation "Slipper."

| Summary/Abstract |
A mine is a terrible thing that waits. The easy way is always mined. Any ship can be a minesweeper-once. Sea mines and the need to counter them have been constants for the U.S. Navy since the earliest days of the Republic. In January 1778, patriot David Bushnell used floating kegs of gunpowder fitted with contact firing mechanisms to attack a British fleet anchored in the Delaware River above Philadelphia. Four British sailors died trying to retrieve the kegs-an early example of the challenges of explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) against an unknown threat-but the ships were unscathed. Since that uncertain beginning, mines and mine countermeasures (MCM) have figured prominently in the Civil War, Spanish-American War, both world wars, Korea, Vietnam, numerous Cold War crises, and Operations DESERT STORM and IRAQI FREEDOM.

| Summary/Abstract |
Naval power projection operations were an important tool in Victorian Britain’s strategic arsenal. From the 1860s technological change in the form of mines presented a major threat to the Royal Navy’s strategy of coastal assault. In order to continue to operate in this environment the Royal Navy proactively engaged with mining technology. Through this process it shaped the new technology to suit its particular strategic and cultural requirements. The war scares with Russia in 1878 and 1885 provided the impetus to operationalise these developments and highlighted how the Royal Navy and its coastal assault strategy remained an important facilitator of British policy.

| Summary/Abstract |
Successfully implementing innovation within a bureaucracy ultimately requires a champion to navigate the inherently political processes of securing sponsorship and resourcing. This is just as important to the very small as to the very large programs, particularly during periods of fiscal austerity. “It’s fragmented,” commented retired rear admiral Paul Ryan, former commander of the U.S. Navy’s Mine Warfare Command, in April 2014. “There is no single champion for mine
warfare.
