[@TheBigOne0305]

@@Ysckemia Once the fuse has been removed from the mine, it's basically just a big block of explosive. And with how stable modern military explosives are, there isn't much risk in handling, transporting or reusing them. Even drilling into them and installing a new fuse isn't as dangerous as it might sound. Most modern explosives can even be safely burned without exploding. They require a significant shock impulse (like from a fuse charge) to actually detonate.

The mines are Ukraine's. They inherited them when the USSR fell. They mined their own roads and shit in a last ditch effort to stop the Russian advance. Russia uses the TM-72 AT mine, an updated version of the TM-62. It has a magnetic fuse that can only be activated by a ferrous metal, not a person. If you want proof that Ukraine used landmines, you can find several videos of a Russian minesweeper getting disabled by them. The TM-62 landmine is deployed with the GMZ-3 Minelayer, which Ukraine still uses. Edit: Also, just wanted to say, TM-62 mines are about 21 pounds. These have to be very very short range drone flights.

I heard about these mines two weeks ago. The thing is, more powerful drones have appeared (thanks to the Chinese comrades for that) and because of this, the opportunities for operators have expanded. For example, you can install a release system for six grenades, or the same number of mortar shells, attach two RPG missiles without losing speed, or even lift an anti-personnel or anti-tank mine. By the way, thanks to the months of demining in the Zaporozhye region, a huge amount is available. They cannot be reused for safety reasons, but it is quite possible now to return them to the Russians.

[@elmerkilred159]

@:42 Not a hole. It's called a "fuse well," and it is threaded to accept various forms of fuse triggering devices to create mechanical ambushes. The TM62 has a fuse well on the side and the bottom in addition to the fuse well on the top that accepts a pressure place. It's an Anti-Tank mine, so the pressure plate usually requires 200lbs of pressure to set off the mine. The other fuse wells can adapt spring loaded triggering devices, or other forms of lighter mechanical pressure related fuse devices that will allow the release of retaining pins when trip wires are attached to them.

[@wheelmanstan]

how dangerous is setting them?

[@elmerkilred159]

@@wheelmanstan It can be dangerous if you have to dig one up to set one. There can be other fuses attached to the mine you're digging up that are designed to go off if they are tampered with. Mines can also be double stacked increasing the explosive power normally used to blow the track off of a tank.

No, TM62 mines only have 1 fuse well and it’s the big one in the centre. The one with the grenade fuse was drilled out specifically for that fuse.

[@lost4468yt]

Nah they're loving this. They'll just copy the designs, but make everything proprietary, and they'll get a 10% accuracy increase and some fancier anti-jamming capability and extended range. But increase the price by multiple orders of magnitude. Something not mentioned is also the rapid development of consumer thermal cameras over the past several years. This is also something they had for a long time, but was extremely expensive, as well as using different technologies that had to be deeply cooled not long ago. Now consumer ones are rapidly increasing in resolution and accuracy, and the wavelengths covered also slowly creep up and grow wider. Previously extremely expensive and quite frankly inefficient millitary networks are also rapidly being replaced with internet. Which is susceptible to enemy attack a lot, but the networks are built to be heavily redundant, and not just that but the internet doesn't consist of a single type of network anymore, you have buried fibre/copper lines, mobile networks,, traditional satellite, modern StarLink-style satellite (and multiple other countries/unions plan to launch their own constellations, and the EU has already confirmed theirs will have a military mode). And not just that but cheap consumer point to point ethernet connections using 60GHz and similar have also popped up, and they can go for 20km with line of sight and are tiny, and given they're so directional they're hard to jam. And of course who could forget modern processors, microcontrollers, SoCs, FPGAs, parallel accelerators like GPUs, and now AI accelerators like TPUs. And plenty more like MEMS sensors, high capacity batteries which can push huge amounts of current, extremely efficient torquey electric motors, fine control of huge amounts of electrical power thanks to innovations in MOSFETs and similar, rapid programming languages and huge amounts of open source software to do half the work for you, CAD and simulation software that is extremely advanced and available to the masses, 3d printers that allow rapid prototyping as well as low-medium volume creation of parts that don't have to undergo stresses (which is actually normally most parts, and as 3d metal printers get cheaper, stress parts will be creatable), and the vast amount of information available online that also spreads rapidly. Most of those weapon companies are going to be fine of course. The above will allow something akin to the democratisation of particular types of weapon systems, and it'll just increase in scope all the time. But no one is going to be replacing the vast majority of weapon systems they produce. Developing your own version of reconnaissance satellites? An F-35? Etc etc etc. No. I think if you really wanted to push it you might be able to build up to the level of a weapon like the Javelin for much cheaper. But then you're kind of missing the point of these new weapons. Why would you clone a javelin when you can just drop an anti-tank mine on the tank? Tanks can theoretically have a pretty good warning time and counter-measures against a Javelin, but they don't currently have any counter measures to just dropping a mine on top of them lol. The beauty of these systems are that all of the cheap consumer tech above has made a whole section of new and cheap weapons that can defeat a century of engineering and research.

What's wrong with you? Of course all humans deserve to live and no one should be murdered. BUT! Only Ukrainians are the present target of Russia's declared goal to genocide Ukraine. Get it? Ukrainians deserve to live like anyone else does. Right? Therefore Putler's attempted genocide of Ukraine has to be stopped by any effective means necessary -- and returning Russia's mines to senders seems remarkably effective.

Great video I never dreamed that I would see a drone war. Both sides are very good with. Ukraine is showing the world what cheap drones can do to a army.

I love the idea that they are sending the mines back to Russia. Russia has laid millions of mines so there is no shortage of them

If you dare to go a minefield , go ahead.
