Abstract: As natioans are pursing the concept of “zero casualties”, the unmanned minefield has gradually become the trend of future mine warfare. As a new type of combat force, the development of unmanned systems in the anti-mine field has attracted much attention, which is worthy of further study. Based on the current situation of unmanned mine countermeasure development abroad, the technical characteristics and typical equipment indicators of UUVs, UAV,s and USVs are compared. The key techniques in unmanned mine countermeasure equipment in the fields of energy power, autonomous control, cooperative control, deployment recovery and stealth are described and summarized. The development trend of remote control, universal design, functional expansion and collaborative development are analyzed, and some references for the development of mine countermeasures in China are provided.
