The KMT family of mine rollers/plows is an optional equipment designed for producing passages in the AT mine fiels. The systems are attached to the front of Russian MBTs. The KMT-7 and 8 seen here is a combined roller/plow type. The passage in the minefield is created as a result of pressure applied to mine detonators by the roller sections, followed by the unearthing of undetonated mines and their pushing off the path by the plows. In addition, two flexible torsions are installed on the mounting frame to counter antennae-activated bottom-piercing mines. Finally the detonation of magnetically triggered mines is achieved by an additional electromagnetic attachment in front of the mounting.
The T-72B3 obr.2016 and the KMT-7-8 are again very fine 3D printed models by Turbo Studio. The figure is from White Stork Miniatures.
