What is Mine Neutralization?
Mine neutralization is the act of safely disabling or destroying underwater mines to eliminate
their threat, often using specialized equipment or techniques to prevent accidental explosions.
Why Use ROVs?
ROVs enable Explosive Ordinance Disposal (EOD) teams to dispose of underwater
mines quickly and safely, reducing the risk to divers.
How to use ROVs for Mine Disposal?
To neutralize the mine, use the ROV’s sonar and cameras to locate and approach it.
Position the charge disruptor over the mine’s vulnerable area, ensuring precise placement. Once the charge disruptor is placed, the shock tube dispenses, allowing the ROV to travel to a safe distance. Once the ROV is at a safe distance, initiate the detonation to effectively neutralize the mine.
