Long-Term Mine Reconnaissance System
- Long-Term Mine Reconnaissance System
The Long-Term Mine Reconnaissance System (LMRS) is a torpedo tube-launched and tube-recovered underwater search and survey unmanned undersea vehicle (UUV) capable of performing autonomous minefield reconnaissance as much as 200 kilometers (120 miles) in advance of a host "Los Angeles"-, "Seawolf"-, or "Virginia"-class submarine.
LMRS is equipped with both forward-looking sonar and side-scan synthetic aperture sonar.
Boeing concluded the detailed design phase of the development project on 31 August 1999.In January 2006, USS "Scranton" (SSN-756) successfully demonstrated homing and docking of an LMRS UUV system during at-sea testing. [http://www.news.navy.mil/search/display.asp?story_id=22618]
