 Panther II makes minefield clearing safer November 2004 FORWARD OPERATING BASE REMAGEN, TIKRIT, Iraq – Recent technological advances have enabled the Army to protect its most valuable asset, the lives of its Soldiers. The M1 Abrams Panther II is a 43-ton remote controlled vehicle designed to help clear minefields. A specially modified M1 Abrams Main Battle Tank stripped of its turret and installed with Omnitech’s Standardized Teleoperation System and mine rollers allows this vehicle to mine-proof and clear hazardous area. The vehicle is also equipped with a magnetic “dog bone,” which is designed to set off magnetic mines and tilt rods. The Panther can be driven manually with two Soldiers operating the vehicle as driver and Tank Commander. The driver sits in the traditional tank driver position, the TC, who guides the driver, sits inside the crew compartment, which originally housed the turret. |
