INTELLIGENT MINES: TO THE QUESTION OF EFFICACY EVALUATION

The article discusses the intelligent minefields are considered, which are a system of mines and means of automating their use, and allowing to recognize the characteristics of targets and automatically determine the rational order of their destruction. It is shown that the probability of hitting a target on a mine can be used as an indicator of their effectiveness, depending, among other things, on the dangerous interval, which can be considered the diameter of the zone of continuous destruction. The use of intelligent minefields will increase the loss of enemy manpower and equipment, reduce damage to friendly forces and equipment, and save engineering ammunition in minefields.
