The above shows a Cougar 6x6 MRAP with a mine roller. This is a vehicle currently deployed by the Danish Army in Afghanistan. Can anyone offer info and/or pics of the mine roller???

This one looks a lot like the Generation III Mine Roller (MR) System (a.k.a. Panama City Mine Roller ) used by the Marine Corps in Iraq and Afghanistan :






















I guess the number of wheels can vary to expand or reduce width...

Some informations here and here
