PBGM (Processed Based Ground Mine)
The PBGM (Processed Based Ground Mine) is an advanced intelligent naval mine developed by NSTL (Naval Science & Technological Laboratory), Visakhapatnam.
Designed for underwater naval warfare and harbor defense.
Can be deployed by surface ships or submarines.
Operates at depths of up to 300 meters.
Uses advanced sensors to detect and identify targets.
Activated by one or a combination of:
Acoustic influence (sound generated by a vessel)
Magnetic influence (magnetic field of a vessel)
Pressure influence (water pressure changes caused by a vessel)
Capable of distinguishing genuine targets from non-target objects, reducing false activations.
Plays an important role in protecting strategic maritime areas and restricting enemy naval movement.
