 Navy tests drone system for detecting surfside mines
March 25, 2018 Wyatt Olson - Stars and Stripes


The Navy has completed developmental testing of a drone-based coastal mine detection system intended to become standard equipment on littoral combat ships.

The testing, done last month aboard the USS Coronado off the Southern California coast, put the system through its paces in a realistic environment using the assigned crew and aviation detachment to verify that it is ready for the next step of operational testing, a Navy statement said.
