AN/PSS-14 Mine Detecting Set
"AN/PSS-14 has expanded the range of mine types Soldiers can detect and increased hand-held mine detection efficiency." ~ Army AL&T Magazine, Jan-March 2007
AN/PSS-14 employs a state-of-the-art metal detector and ground penetrating radar, coupled with an advanced microprocessor array and software, to achieve a high probability of detection (in excess of 95 percent) for both large and small metallic and low-metallic antitank (AT) and antipersonnel (AP) mines. Over 9,500 detectors have been fielded to deploying units in support of Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom. This man-portable system provides dismounted Soldiers with a significantly increased mine detection capability and lower alarm rate.
