Thoughts about deploying line charges via quadcopter drones for mine clearing?
Sure, whatever. Line charges are generally laid by rocket, so a drone might be more discrete and be able to put the charge around obstacles.
Would a drone with a longer spool of line charge be able to clear an entire trenchline?
Implessive

>>64386875why not? though a UGV would probably make more sense, I've already seen UGVs fitted with mine clearing gear and I know they've been tested in the field, it's a natural next step to fit line charges to them
>>64387291Why are you replying on a chinkshill thread retard?
>>64386875retarded and slow, wont work in wind/hard rain
>>64386875very lightweight looking "line charge"
>>64386875primitive propaganda to fit the muh drones turdworlder narrativeproper line clearing charge weighs over 5kg/m and a drone won't carry any significant length
>>64386875Dont think drones have capacity to drop real line charges.Drones can use compleatly different approach. Map minefield with sub-meter precision and then drop charges with sub-meter precision right on top of each mine.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqFGwU3W69k
>>64386875Sure. Bigger drone for a bigger charge. The ones shown should be for anti personel minefields and deployed in large numbers, I think. Should work asuming all the soldiers will be given one.
>>6438748615 inch FPV drones can carry up to 7.5 kg of payload. Both Ukraine and Russia use FPV drones that carry fiber optics spools that enable them to strike targets from 40-50km away without being affected by EW nor jamming, and those are quite heavy: https://insidefpv.com/blogs/blogs/10-inch-vs-7-inch-vs-15-inch-kamikaze-drone
>>64387490Could 100kg payload suffice for dropping "real line charges"?
