“A squad inadvertently got stuck in a minefield just over a month ago. We got the call to go out and do an extraction for them. I took two of my best guys. They swept their way out to the vehicle. We just marked and bypassed our way through. [We] found at least 4 mines with the HSTAMIDS (AN/PSS-14), marked them and continued around them towards the vehicle. Once we got everyone safely out of the truck, we brought in a MCAP dozer to clear around the truck. Every mark on the ground was a mine. Everyone was extremely impressed.”
- SFC, US Army

“The -14 is getting rave reviews from the field.”
-US Army PM

“HSTAMIDS [AN/PSS-14] is an outstanding piece of equipment.”
-CPT, EN Commanding

“After continued use of the HSTAMIDS detector [AN/PSS-14], it is my opinion that this detector is superior to all other detectors used by the U.S. Army for area mine clearance.”
-1LT, EN Area Mine Clearance Platoon Leader

“AN/PSS-14 found cache of weapons under the gravel of a dump truck load TRUCK WITH A METAL BED!! Pretty great performance ! Lets see the AN/PSS-12 (or CEIA) do that ! “
-Col, US Army
