Mine Neutralization Process Using an Inspection ROV
Locate the Mine – Use the ROV’s sonar and camera systems to identify the sea mine and approach it.
Position the ROV – Adjust the ROV to align the charge disruptor with the mine’s weak spot.
Release the Shock Tube – Detach the shock tube and move the ROV to a safe distance.
Move to Safety – Drive the ROV to a secure distance from the mine.
Detonate – Trigger the explosion once the ROV is at a safe distance to neutralize the mine.
