The Ukrainian Armed Forces published footage showing an improvised mobile remote mining complex placed on the chassis of the HMMWV light armored vehicle, in its aft part.

The mines are thrown by the Soviet UMZ system, developed in the 1970s. In the original, six installations were mounted on ZIL-131B trucks. Each of these PU is a hexagonal module containing 30 guides.

In the Ukrainian "version", two PU having a 180° rotation angle are placed on the HMMWV machine. They contain a total of 60 minutes. The casting range is 60-100 meters.

As indicated in the Defence24 publication, previously the APU used only small-sized drones for remote installation of the barrier (which took time, due to the possibility of transporting only one mine) and cluster 155-mm RAAM artillery shells (but this is an expensive and scarce tool).

After the introduction of the new system into the troops, almost every unit creating a line of defense will be able to quickly establish a minefield without the need to call specialized vehicles.

- it is noted in the publication.

As indicated, the mass introduction of small-sized remote mining equipment, preferably container systems, will have a deterrent effect, since Russian units will realize that even with the use of small off-road vehicles, the enemy can quickly mine the territory in the direction of which an attack is planned:

Therefore, they will have to act more carefully and, therefore, more slowly.
