nostr:npub1qq7hl5sl6z0l0ahk8f6a4uv5mkvlama7dyvucdmtwdva2zg24xnqyafedr well yeah. You teach every woman to scratch pen to paper and touch digital keyboards and let them have the exclusive say on what they think they want and accept, and we now live with the consequences

nostr:npub1msmfqd4dwmrlu5dnsxkwj4570twc0spacaxe4dem0cefnsv0u8pq640dqu nostr:npub1scjc2e839xfmmsjfqr87huvu9qxenptmamfrcj6s98gv6frq5wgqh0el3p I can't give any answer to that. That all depends on mission, equipment and guys available, and the willingness of higher to use said equipment and guys.

That's not even mentioning how much bullshit might be in the ground too, meaning just metal shit that the mine detectors will be sensing, so that'll slow you down.

Or if you're having to deal with enemy contact. Or how densely spaced the mines may be. While there is a doctrine to these things, soldiers get sloppy, and leaders can decide "fuck it, space em closer together".

Oh, and it depends on how you're disposing/destroying the mines. So I hope they have adequate supplies (not likely).

I can't give you a straight answer. I don't know what the US doctrine says on it (nor will I look it up), and for all the reasons I've stated above.

Got the C4 rockets? gonna be quicker. Don't? Ooooooh boy, you're gonna be there a minute

But only time will tell how effective those mechanisms were

But it's fucking cool to see, a buddy of mine took video from the driver's seat once, and you could see the dust rise from the vehicle as the shockwave got closer

nostr:npub1scjc2e839xfmmsjfqr87huvu9qxenptmamfrcj6s98gv6frq5wgqh0el3p nostr:npub1msmfqd4dwmrlu5dnsxkwj4570twc0spacaxe4dem0cefnsv0u8pq640dqu Oh yeah. Cause anyone who gives a shit won't have the equipment and funding to go out and deal with them before too many innocence die.

That said, more contemporary mines do have self-destruct/self-neutralizing mechanisms to prevent that from happening after they've been armed for x amount of time. How reliable is that? Not sure, but still

nostr:npub1msmfqd4dwmrlu5dnsxkwj4570twc0spacaxe4dem0cefnsv0u8pq640dqu We're engineers. That's our job. If supply and commo can keep things moving (lol lmao), you keep things moving.

nostr:npub1msmfqd4dwmrlu5dnsxkwj4570twc0spacaxe4dem0cefnsv0u8pq640dqu Yeah, that's standard practice. ABV's (Armored Breaching Vehicle, an Abrahms chassis variant) and Abrahms battle tanks have those attachments. ABV'S also have two rockets that pull a 1000lbs bundle of C4 to clear a nice sized path for friendlies to go through.

Much, MUCH more convenient than sending dudes out with mine hounds (detectors)

And anyone is surprised that something with armor that won't reliably stop anything larger than a 25mm might go down pretty easy in a warfare that isn't against poorly equipped arab militaries?

well, yeah. It's the correct economic move in this economy. Full stop.

If you want to bring in any kind of intangible element/variable into it, some dudes actually care about their family.

Imagine taking family-hating faggot seriously when they try to shame you for not hating your own.

A thing I find really cool about the black metal band Nostalghia is the occassional use of saxophone.

Surprisingly to me, based out of Mexico City, Mexico! I'm spared giving compliment to a frog! (though it is french-esque in aesthetics, visual and auditory)
