3. Field test site in Kovčanje, Island Lošinj, Adriatic Sea Inside of the control room in the container. Experimental container for housing control electronics and crane for submarine.

4. “SURVEYOR” Submarine «Surveyor» ready for tests. Schematic presentation of major components of detection system. Photo of the inside of submarine. Neutron generator API-120 on the right side, with NaI(Tl) detector on the left side.

5. The figure shows the system performing the measurement using the NaI gamma detector and an API-120 neutron generator which could be rotated in order to maximize the inspected target volume. The neutron beam intensity during the 10- 30 min. measurements was 1x107 n/s in 4π.

6. UNCOSS SUCCESS CASE -ANNEX I: DOW (16.05.2011)- A caliber 150 mm projectile with a mass of 7 kg TNT (total mass 43 kg) will be chosen to demonstrate the UNCOSS capability to identify the presence of the explosive during a 10 minute measurement with the neutron sensor, which will be previously positioned above the object by using the underwater vehicle and the perception sensors. Due to the small quantity of explosives compared to larger UXOs (torpedoes, airplane bombs, antiship mines…), this “UNCOSS success case” is very demanding but it represents a large population of ammunitions present on the seafloor.

7. Grenade 155 mm (total mass 42.0 kg, TNT mass = 7.18 kg) filled with 6.2 kg of TNT-S1

8. The diver realizing the bomb from the crane attachment and positioning it to the realistic environment. The alternative:

9. Objects on interest on the sea floor are also drums filled with variety of threat materials which usually contain carbon as a component. We have therefore performed measurement with the drum filled with 60 kg of graphite powder. Yet another alternative:

10. Gamma ray spectra from drum filled with 60 kg of graphite powder (black) and background – target out (red). Neutron generator angle α=26°. Measurement time = 20 minute Gamma ray spectrum of drum filled with60 kg of graphite powder (black) and background – target out (red). Neutron generator angle α=26°. Measurement time 67 s.

11. Testing UNCOSS ROV sea worthness tests  In movement: 8 thrusters (6 degrees of freedom including pitch and freedom including pitch and roll). roll).  Standing still: 4 independetly controlable legs. legs.  Depths: down to 50 meters (or more if required). required).
