ABSTRACT:
The land mine neutralizing system has a launcher that launches a disk munon, and a means for determining the location of a mine threat. The disk munition is launched in stabilized flight on a predetermined azimuth. A fuze in the disk munition is armed relative to the velocity of the disk munition leaving the launcher, and the disk munition is detonated at a predetermined time that places the disk munition over a mine. A method for neutralizing mines uses the land mine neutralizing system to neutralize a buried mine.
