As an Army officer, let me tell you: I want nothing to do with land mines. The thing about land mines is you use them in the defense. The thing about the defense is you should immediately transition to the offense. The thing about the offense is you’re moving toward the enemy...

Citing mines’ deactivation or self-destruction capabilities is an empty argument without mentioning that there’s at least a 10% fail rate and that self-destructing mines can still kill people. Like saying “cluster munitions are safe” w/o mentioning duds.https://twitter.com/gstrategerist/status/1224044656343822339?s=21 …

Further, there are plenty of other options to shape engagement areas that don’t involve land mines. And despite what he says, no maneuver brigade commanders currently need “re-training” on EA dev after being stuck in GWOT. That’s been in every training scenario in the last 5yrs.

Once you’ve been to Laos or Cambodia and see first-hand the way 40+ years on cluster munitions and land mines continue to kill and maim it is impossible to justify their use.

Land mines have come a long way since Korea, timed self destruction is standard and smart land mines make transition easy .

Our mines have time limits. I don't have first hand knowledge how effective they are, but they're supposed to dud out after 4 hours, 48 hours, or 15 days, depending on the setting. We typically use the 4 or 48 hour settings in order to allow transition into the offense.

I disagree, without having laying of mines as a capablity the ENY does not need to take this means in as planning factor. Also mines are invaluable when creating defence in depth for shaping ENY advance. The use of such are, as all COAs, a pro/con, but should be an option.
