This is a mine clearing line charge. It fails and breaks the chain eventually causing a fire on the range. Be patient, the rocket doesn't fire 00:25...

  • interesting, although i do not understand the purpose of the chain and how intact the rocket is supposed to clear mines?

  • The MICLIC is a rocket projected explosive line charge which provides a "close-in" breaching capability for maneuver forces. It is effective against conventionally fused mines and, when detonated, it provides a lane 8 meters by 100 meters. The line charge is 350 feet long and contains 5 pounds per linear foot of composition C-4 explosive.

  • All you are seeing here is the launch vessel going up. The C4 line charge was not hooked up and that's why you didn't see a tremedous detonation at the end. Otherwise, those GI's would have been a hell of a lot further away, trust me!

  • Works great on occupied buildings just shoot it down the road and let her rip! Hooah!!

  • its a seperate control to detonate. the line behind it is the c4. You make sure the line is straight and not kinked.

  • about 5 pounds of c4 every 1 foot so i'm guessing that the line charge wasn't attached correctly.

  • very nice ;D arent you a little to close ?

    please go and see my 2 new videos, comments and/or rattings are greatly welcome!

  • The chain is a very long string of C4... I think it's 1700 lbs of C4... They shoot that giant rope of C4 into a mine field. It lands, then they detonate it... It's like a 300 ft long, 30 feet wide path created by it... The explosion created by the rope is awesome

  • Holy shit, you guys are close to the launch! When we fired this during my Norwegian military service as a mech. assault engineer, we had to keep a distance of approx. 1 km... I'm pretty sure it's the same MICLIC system. 100 meters long and about 800 kg's of C4?
