Why Mine-Clearing Tanks don't work

In this video we look at the various problems with dealing with mines in combat situations. Particularly we look at anti-mine flail, plow, roller and other equipment like explosive lines charges. Additionally, we look at air/artillery deploy-able mines. »» GET OUR BOOKS «« » Stukabook - Doctrine of the German Dive-Bomber - http://stukabook.com » The Assault Platoon of the Grenadier-Company November 1944 (StG 44) - http://sturmzug.com » Army Regulation Medium Panzer Company 1941 - http://www.hdv470-7.com » Achtung Panzer?

This is a fantastic Video. In my opinion also narrative skills and the whole lot. I didn't have a lot to do with the logistics when I worked on designing armoured vehicles. But I did have to do a bit with the effects of mines or ieds. It ain't nice. Sometimes there is the wish from the client to fix a plow to each tank, or to many, a bit as the Russian /soviet example. It's a fucked business mine clearing it is. You can augment survivability against attack with speed and such but mines... Sure if you can drive were none are., yet... After you see some videos and all you don't have the same view of armoured vehicles, same as cars with accidents I guess
