ABSTRACT:
A minesweeping system, in particular for surface mines of the pressure plate type, has a minesweeping structure pushed by a propelling device. The minesweeping structure is constituted by a deformable elongate surface with an appropriate weight per unit length to apply to the mine a sufficient continuous pressure for a sufficiently long period of time to explode the mine as the surface passes over it. This surface is constituted for example by articulated metal shoes forming a track.
