The vehicle is armed with a launcher and two mine-clearing line charges. When launched, a charge causes a shock wave that destroys or disables all the shells or mines along the area of the line charge. (with a width of 6 metres and length up to 90 metres). The vehicle has also been used offensively, where its line charge has been used to destroy entire streets in urban combat.
