Mine Countermeasures

ISE provides proven Mine Countermeasure solutions designed to improve operational safety, efficiency, and effectiveness in the detection, identification, and neutralization of underwater mines. Drawing on decades of subsea engineering experience, ISE delivers modular systems that can be configured to meet evolving naval mission requirements.

The ISE MCM portfolio includes the Dorado Autonomous Tow Vehicle, Aurora Sonar Towfish, Explorer AUV, and Trailblazer Mine Countermeasure ROV. Together, these systems provide complementary capabilities for wide-area surveillance, high-speed sonar operations, underwater object identification, and mine disposal.

The Dorado’s deeply submerged operating configuration reduces hydrodynamic drag compared to surface-based systems, enabling higher speeds, improved performance in elevated sea states, and extended operational ranges. When paired with the Aurora Towfish, the system provides high-resolution sonar capability for mine detection and classification.

With extensive experience supporting naval, defense, and specialized subsea operations, ISE develops adaptable MCM solutions that combine proven technology, modular design, and mission-specific customization to address complex underwater challenges.
