The Russian UR-77 Meteorit carries two linear mine-clearing charges, each of which is launched by a rocket. The charges are designed to clear a path 6 m wide and 90 m long through an anti-vehicle minefield. Each line charge weighs 1,069 kg, most of which is high-explosive. When the UR-77 is hit, as this one was, in the vicinity of Avdiivka, it is not always clear if it is loaded or not. This one was. https://lnkd.in/gdPpnxb5
