CONTROLLED ANTITANK MINES OF NEW GENERATION
Journal Title: Problemy Techniki Uzbrojenia - Year 2016, Vol 140, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper presents a System of Controlled Antitank Mines (SCAM) which is a world unknown solution of a concept of intelligent battlefield and is designed to build engineering dams. The mines have an innovative solution integrating acoustic, seismic, thermal and laser scanner sensors into a single intelligent system. The system allows the setting of a minefield from directed antitank mines which autonomously select and destroy targets by explosively formed projectile when the security levels I and II are taken off. The system is supervised by an operator who can remotely set the II security level using radio controls and then the mines may be set in the I security state to take them out and use again in a new place. SCAM destroys tanks, armored vehicles, trucks and selfpropelled bonded between (trawling) rigs. The paper presents a concept of the system and some results of state qualification tests for individual elements.<br/><br/>
