Неубиваемый «Вепрь»: как работает российская машина разминирования, которой любое минное поле нипочём

The speed of mine clearance in the area is tripled with its help

The speed of mine clearance in the area using the BMR-3M "Vepr" combat mine clearance vehicle based on the T-90 tank increases by an average of three times. This was stated by the head of the representative office of the International Mine Action Center of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation with the call sign "Kubinec".

According to him, the Russian Armed Forces, with the help of this equipment, carry out tasks of continuous clearing and demining of the area, as well as the destruction of detected explosive objects.

Our opponents have minefields, of which we cannot know either the borders or the ammunition used. Therefore, we have to constantly work in full combat readiness to search for explosive objects. The equipment facilitates our work and significantly speeds up all activities. With the use of the BMR-3M vehicle, the speed of mine clearance increases by an average of three times.
