Under water bombs are called naval mines. Under water bombs are used to destroy surface ships or submarines.
Proximity mines are small little bombs that are used in special combat. The military and special ops units use them so when an enemy walks over them they explode.
Most people are probably aware of dogs being used to detect explosives, but dogs are also used to sniff out illicit drugs and agricultural contraband.
They are good guard dogs, good at herding, protecting, obedience, agility, and sniffing out things. This is why they are used in the police. They are all - round good dogs.
Body armor for dogs came about largely because of the war on terror. With more and more military dogs being used in the attack or bombing sniffing role, it became important to protect dogs from bombs or attack.It costs thousands of dollars to train and deploy a military dog, hence protecting it from bombs and angry civilians (many Arabs culturally dislike dogs) is worthwhile.Addendum:Armour was also produced for war dogs in antiquity, from the medieval and early renaissance periods.It was also used regularly for dogs used in hunting boar or similar wild animals, to protect the vaulable and trained animals.There are depictions of war dogs with protective harnesses on the bayeux tapestry, from the 11th Century, sculptures of dogs in armour from the 17th Century, and at least one example of such armour is to be found in museum collections; in the Higgins Museum, Worcester, Massachusetts.
The military used dogs a lot to sniff out under ground bombs or just hidden bombs from the enemies. They also might have used dogs to find people in war zones if an attack had just hit and they are looking for survivors or they are just looking for someone who is lost and they cannot find alone. Military dogs are very useful and with them it has helped to save many people from hidden bombs. The Russians during world war two used to train dogs to carry mines under German tanks essentially making them unwiting suicide bombers. This however backfired on them as they were trained on models of Russian tanks not German ones so they blew up their masters tanks instead, naturally it was not one of their better ideas.
