I wonder what the unit price is and whether it’s actually worth it. I suspect one could buy a fair number of FPV drones for the price of one of these mines.
Great. Counter the Russian degenerate terror tactics that targets civilians, with more conventional warfare using superior intelligent equipment.
PARM is good for covering a large area, when you don’t have the luxury of planting lots of mines.
But it’s not that great in Ukraine, due to lack of cover to hide them, it’s all open fields with tiny strips of forest.
Drones can easily spot them and artillery could topple them.
So I’m not so sure about their effectiveness, but UKR needs everything, can’t be choosy.
German road mines have been quite effective so far. Ukrainians will put these to good use.
