A -- BEACH AND/OR SURF ZONE CLEARING ENERGETIC SOLUTIONS POC Ahn Duong, (301) 744-6703 E-MAIL: pricebl@ih.navy.mil, ERROR --. INDIAN HEAD DIVISION SEEKS COLLABORATION TO CO-DEVELOP ENERGETIC SOLUTIONS TO CLEAR MINES AND OBSTACLES FROM BEACH AND SURF LANDING ZONES The Indian Head Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (IHDIV/NSWC) is seeking agencies, groups, or corporate interests for collaboration and co-development of proposals for beach and/or surf zone clearing energetic solutions. IHDIV/NSWC is the National Center for Energetics (NCE). We apply our vast energetic technology and energetic subsystem engineering experience to designing tomorrow's mine clearing/breaching solutions. To date IHDIV has had many successful collaborative efforts. Examples include Distributed Explosive Technology (DET), Shallow Water Assault Breaching System (SABRE) (rocket propelled distributed explosive nets or series line charges deployed into the surf zone); HYDRA-7 (energetic-filled darts), and ESMB (rocket-deployed net with distributed shaped charges; formerly DEMNS). IHDIV is the Navy's resource for ensuring underwater and mine breaching warhead and energetic subsystems are designed, developed, and produced to meet current and future performance, safety, and environmental standards. Our broad expertise in explosive energy and its application has been brought to bear on defeating various threat obstacles and mines. Some of our capability areas include energetic subsystem design and analysis, detonation physics, material science, energetic formulation, mine threat lethality, propulsion and delivery design, and energetic manufacturing and testing. Interested organizations should contact Ahn Duong at (301) 744-6703/email duongan@ih.navy.mil. Posted 02/22/00 (W-SN427260). (0053)
