The cannon creates a powerful electromagnetic pulse, which triggers the magnetic sensors of explosive objects. The device is particularly effective against landmines and anti-personnel mines with magnetic target sensors, the agency added.

After the NRTK "Courier" with the "electromagnetic cannon" passes, sappers perform a control sweep using mine detectors, the Russian Ministry of Defence concluded.
