Panzerminenleger 90
The Austrian minelaying system of the 1990s included, in addition to a towing truck Steyr 12M18, a single-axle trailer modified for the mechanical laying of anti-tank mines while underway. The laying of mines was reportedly controlled by a computer located in the cab of the trailer. The trailer was fitted with a tipping arm with a support wheel (spur) to facilitate short distance movements.
