Identify TWO statments about land mines?
There are two types of landmines anti-tank mines and anti-personnelmines.Land mines were invented by Zhuge liang,a Chinese inventor and a military strategist.The first landmine in Europe was created by Pedro Navaro ( a Spanish soldier) in the beginning of the 16 century.Land mines can remain active for more than 50 years.It cost $3-$30 to purchase a landmine and it costs as much as $1000 to remove one.An estimated 10,000 civilians die each year from land mines.Many people involved in a land mine accident lose their limbs or their eye sight.Mines are used to deny access to or usage of farmlands, irrigation channels, roads, waterways, and public utilities.Experts believe that it would take 1,100 years to clear the whole world of existing land mines.Land mines prevent access to safe drinking water, forcing people to drink dirty or contaminated water.---Mines are not really weapons. They're barriers. Military engineers use minefields to slow the advance of enemy forces and to channel them into bottlenecks (such as an unminedroad or field). Artillery and other weapons can then be used to attack the enemy in these bottlenecks. Like sea mines, landmines can deny the use of routes and passages to friend and foe alike.Both answers are correct, but also not correct. Land mines were really invented back in thetime of B.C.The inventor's name is Sun Tzu,also known as the greatest military strategist who ever lived. Yes land mines are both anti-personneland anti vehicle. But what is never talked about is the land mine'strue purpose. The land mine was created as apsychologicalweapon at first, then aphysical weapon. The land mine was to scare enemy soldiers so they not listen to commands. Land mines have evolved from then. There are now different types of land mines. The 2 main types are what I like to call "The Death" and "The Mind". The Death land mines do what they are suppose to do, kill. A famous example of the death land mine is the American M18 Claymore Mine. The M18 was a model of a mine that stays above ground instead of below. First saw action in the Vietnam War. The second type "The Mind" is the real type of land mine. Take the North Korean Anti-PersonnelBox Mine. This mine does not kill, it maims. These mines can hit soldiers and civilians alike. This puts factors into psychologicalwarfare.
