Mine clearance mulcher operation in Namibia
Based on a BV206 all terrain troop transport vehicle, Smith Engineering was engaged to produce a rapid response ATV for mine clearance in Namibia (SW Africa) by the German de-mining charity MGM.
The vehicle was retrofitted with a 50 hp diesel hydraulic power unit driving a 1.2 m brush cutter and arm with a 30 sq m cutting capability from a fixed position. The brush cutter clears undergrowth and has the ability to shatter & destroy any tree-borne mines.
95% of anti-personel mines disintegrate without detonation when impacted by the rotor, 5mm armour plate shield the operator and vehicle from detonated mine fragments. Elevated working area protects operator with 8mm thick polycarbonate.
