FM/BG-1772.V1.00 - Lane clearing vehicles
The lane-clearing vehicles, such as the Stryker, use a mine plough to trigger and clear explosive hazards.
When operating the vehicle:
- Enable and lower the mine plough before advancing
- Expect reduced mobility, especially on uneven terrain
- Adjust movement to avoid becoming immobilised
For safe and effective use:
- Limit speed to approximately 15 km/h to reduce vehicle damage from detonations
- Use the lane marking system to define a cleared route
- Markers deploy from the rear of the vehicle
- Use consistent spacing (e.g. ~25m intervals)
Be aware that markers are physical objects and may be affected by terrain or vehicle movement.
