The U.S. Army has reported that it uses modern technology at the battlefield to keep soldiers safe, included new remote-controlled mine clearance vehicles.

The machine is a M160, also called the MV4 DO-KING, a remote-controlled, tracked mine clearance system designed for the destruction of anti-personnel mines and unexploded ordnance.

The M160 Robotic Mine Flail is designed to clear areas of anti-personnel mines to keep ground forces safe. Using line of sight remote control, soldiers remain a safe distance away from any potential detonations and tripwires.
