Sea mines and underwater obstacles can pose a serious threat to maritime mission success. Whether the mines are under water, on the surface, drifting, or even hiding in the murk, SMAMD can find them and provide their location in a single pass.

Maritime mission planning

Sea mines and underwater obstacles can pose a serious threat to maritime mission success. BAE Systems’ Single-system Multi-mission Airborne Mine Detection system, or SMAMD, is a laser-based optical sensor suite that mitigates this risk by detecting mines in realtime. Whether the mines are under water, on the surface, drifting, or even hiding in the murk, SMAMD can find them and provide their location in a single pass. This critical data is relayed to the remote operator, enabling smarter preparation and faster decision making.

Moving your mission forward, day or night

The SMAMD sensor operates in any condition, day or night. It does this while maintaining a low false-alarm rate, reducing challenges to neutralization systems and their operators. Additionally, SMAMD is both platform and threat agnostic, which gives it the flexibility to work with numerous vehicles for a variety of mission types.

With the LIDAR scanner’s programmability, warfighters can maintain mission effectiveness at a broad range of speeds and altitudes. The technology is modular and scalable, making SMAMD an adaptable and cost-effective solution.
