  • Patent number: 9561842
    Abstract: Mine neutralization provides for radio control of a small boat having associated therewith: a projection mounted onto the boat and pointing forward; a primary magnet; a housing holding the primary magnet and joined at the front end of the projection; a fluid-dynamically shaped explosive device detachably attached underneath the boat; at least one secondary magnet affixed to the explosive device; and, a rope or cable tautly connected at its upper end to the primary magnet and at its lower end to the explosive device. The boat journeys near a floating mine to bring about magnetic interaction between the primary magnet and the mine. The primary magnet magnetically attaches to the mine, and a pulling force is exerted on the explosive device. The explosive device detaches from the boat, moves toward the mine, and magnetically attaches (via at least one secondary magnet) to the mine.
