Abstract

NPS NRP Executive Summary Offensive mine warfare is a domain of growing importance to naval operations. The ability to project power, especially in areas of denied access to traditional naval power, is increasingly important in this era of near-peer, Great Power competition. Understanding the foundational purpose of offensive mining operations, within the context of current and potential threat environments, will enable a better understanding of how such devices and their employment doctrine can be transformed for maximum effect. The development of smart, mobile mine networks - capable of operating in littoral, very shallow environments " for example, may prove essential to modern seabed and mine warfare. Systems and mission engineering processes can be applied to develop potentially-disruptive new offensive mine warfare missions, evaluate technological capabilities, and identify specific needs, requirements and performance measures for such missions. This research supports DCNO N9 - Warfare Systems and ONR S&T Code 33 goals of advancing unmanned sea platforms, autonomy and power, and undersea weapons.

Abstract

NPS NRP Annual Report The Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) Naval Research Program (NRP) is funded by the Chief of Naval Operations and supports research projects for the Navy and Marine Corps. The NPS NRP serves as a launch-point for new initiatives which posture naval forces to meet current and future operational warfighter challenges. NRP research projects are led by individual research teams that conduct research and through which NPS expertise is developed and maintained. The primary mechanism for obtaining NPS NRP support is through participation at NPS Naval Research Working Group (NRWG) meetings that bring together fleet topic sponsors, NPS faculty members, and students to discuss potential research topics and initiatives.

Abstract

Includes supplementary material Offensive mine warfare (OMW) is an often overlooked and underdeveloped potential benefit to the breadth of options available for current naval forces regarding enemy deterrence. By taking a modified systems engineering Vee approach and applying it to offensive mine warfare, this project provides a definition of existing operational concepts and projects the future potential of this methodology. This project defines two simulations utilizing OMW in both an open-ocean transit mission and an ocean strait escort mission. These mission scenarios help provide the composition of the interconnected system of systems involved with the deployment, loiter, engagement, and recovery functions of offensive mines. An emphasis is placed on the use of Advanced Undersea Weapons Systems to carry out these functions, specifically large-displacement unmanned underwater vehicles. Simulations provided within this project better map the interconnection of the deployment, loiter, engagement, and recovery functions as they pertain to the measures of effectiveness for each mission scenario. By decomposing the major functions of OMW, this project provides the initial framework for the inclusion of offensive mining into the current naval forces’ repertoire of enemy-deterrence options. Additionally, this project’s decomposition of offensive mining in its current iteration provides the framework for a further investigation into the future capabilities of this product.
