Synopsis
Explore the world of harbor defenses and underwater mine systems with clear, practical detail.
This comprehensive guide outlines how buoyant and ground mines are designed, deployed, and fired, with practical distinctions between mechanical and electrical systems. It explains how location, depth, and channel dynamics affect mine placement, and how these defenses work in concert with shore batteries to protect strategic waters.
Inside you’ll find descriptions of the mine system’s core elements, from casemates and cables to the layout of groups and distribution boxes. The book also covers the equipment and procedures needed to plant, maintain, and operate a mine field, including plotting, range finding, and night illumination. Examples illustrate how operators determine firing times, coordinate with observers, and switch between automatic and manual firing modes.
- Understanding the choice between buoyant and ground mines and when each is used
- Details on firing methods, signal systems, and safety controls for friendly vessels
- How to locate, plot, and track mines using a dedicated prediction ruler and plotting boards
- Overview of the key materiel and machinery in a mine casemate, from generators to storage batteries and power panels
Ideal for readers interested in the practical history and operation of defensive mine systems and their integration with other harbor defenses.
