I was watchin Bomb Patrol Afghanistan and saw this, which appears to be an Unmanned Mine Roller. Naturally I googled it but could't come up with anything about the vehicle. I have seen it in other episodes of Bomb Patrol but I was wondering if anyone on the forum's know's anything about this vehicle

Here's a few more pictures of the vehicle. They appear to be used by Army Route Clearance Patrol and are carried on heavy industrial looking trailers behind M-ATVS.
