BAOBAB-K, the scattered mine laying vehicle is intended to set scattered antitank barrier minefields by engineering tactical level troops. The BAOBAB enables automatic laying of barrier minefields of different size, density and time of self-destruction. The minefield laying process is carried out automatically by using a control station. In automatic mode, the computer calculates the speed of the vehicle, launcher settings and adjusts the frequency of launching mines while driving. Additionally, minefield parameters and coordinates are recorded on digital maps and displayed on the computer screen and might be sent through radio communications to higher command level units. BAOBAB is based on 8×8 JELCZ chassis with high mobility and payload capabilities. The vehicle is manned by 2 soldiers.
