NSWC PCD is the Navy's designated full spectrum Mine Warfare RDT&E laboratory with over 60 years of in-house knowledge and expertise. The Division capabilities include the development and implementation of new technologies, mission systems integration, and applied system engineering to conduct mine countermeasures. Mine countermeasures includes detecting, localizing, identifying, and neutralizing mine threats from deep water through the beach zone. Detection and identification may use magnetics, acoustics, and electro-optics, as well as, other technologies. Neutralization uses systems ranging from minesweeping to explosive clearance. Assets used for mine countermeasures operations include dedicated, modular, and organic air, surface, and sub-surface platforms. Included are the specialized facilities and expertise needed to exploit the new technologies found in existing and emergent mine threats, to assess Fleet susceptibility to foreign threats, and to develop new systems and tactics to counter those threats.
The Division's mine development capability includes analysis and modeling used to design and field target detecting device algorithms ad to perform mine effectiveness computations against current military targets of interest. This includes the research, development, and implementation of new technologies and systems to conduct offensive undersea mine warfare. Offensive mine warfare includes those people and facilities necessary for successful and innovative research, design, development, analysis, modeling, engineering, test, acquisition, platform integration, as well as Fleet and operational support for safe, effective, state of the art technology mine systems and sub-systems including deployment equipment.
