Description
Another failed attempt at mine clearance. Pushed by a tank at low speed, the mine roller device consists of four cement-filled 44-gallon (200-litre) drums attached by a central yoke to the tank's forward towing eyes. It is being trialled - unsuccessfully - in the opening of Route 326 around the Long Hai hills during Operation Thunderbolt.
