Minesweepers are specialized naval vessels designed to detect and remove underwater mines. These mines can pose significant threats to ships and submarines, making safe navigation essential for military and commercial operations. Minesweepers use various techniques, including sonar and mechanical devices, to locate and neutralize these hazards. There are different types of minesweepers, such as mechanical minesweepers and magnetic minesweepers, each employing unique methods to clear mines. They play a crucial role in ensuring maritime safety, especially in conflict zones or areas where mines have been laid during warfare.
