One little interesting fact: The glass fibre cable detecting the apporaching enemy vehicle cant be detected by a metal detector. Means that, if you dont dig it up or rip it out of the ground, you wont find it until its too late. That was a complicated sentence...
What a nasty little device. And that tripwire function is pretty cool too. Effectively what Germany has done is over-engineer the IED. But it's good, because lashing artillery shells together is time consuming and wastes ammunition.
And if you are using a couple of them...preprammed lets say first vehicle and "put in number " the last vehicle...upsi road blocked...and prearranged artillery...it becomes nasty realy ....realy fast
That's a vital part of the design. Otherwise, they could have an expendable vehicle lead the convoy. You can use your imagination as to just what that might entail. MACVSOG used to use this tactic to protect themselves against anti personnel mines that might be hidden on trails. They would take a viet cong prisoner and tie their hands and gag them, and make them walk ahead of them on the trail at gunpoint.
I think these lethal mines are emminently suitable for use in Ukraine against Russian invading forces. Its the sort of truly wicked device that would make you think twice about wanting to travel anywhere in Ukraine in any Russian armoured vehicle.
You should have put a link of this to the video on what you did yesterday on PARM-2 Mine Hits Russian Vehicle Supposedly Carrying Officers. It just compliments it so much!
oh dear, I'm going to have to help on this one regarding the German language; PARM stands for "PanzerAbwehrRichtMine,", phonetically this is said something like " pantser-abvehr-richt-meeneh " the richt is said something like ri as in re in english and cht as in loch the ch bit but with the Scottish accent. That's how it's said. It's comprises of several words making up one word, and those words are (this is where it gets self explanatory): Panzer (Tank/Armour) P Abwehr (defence/repulsion) A Richt (directional) R Mine (Mine!) M Hope this helps.
@@suchomimus9921 yes, being half German half English I can sort that sort of thing. The German language is tough especially with longer words. Words are often long in German (which we brits laugh about) but only because over time they have simply joined several words together to describe something. When one speaks German one does however often immediately see what is meant with the word as in this example that describes all aspects of the function... in one word. :D
damn they are handy and super usable. You could setup a complete ambush, making the enemy fire at ghosts in panic. Send more! It should detect the weight also. And be able to skip way more
They recently got a senior officer group on the southern front NW of Meriopol...the funny part of the 2nd vehicle rolled over because the driver paniced and took the curve far too fast and killed half the people in his vehicle as well...
Very timely info based on what you showed us yesterday. One question for anyone that knows.. is it remotely controlled to fire at the 9th vehicle, or would that need to be known well in advance of the arrival of the convoy? Keep up the good work.
They seem overly complicated compared to regular AT mines but at the same time they look so cool that I can't help but love them more lol. Plus, the more advanced computing in it allows for some real cool possibilities. I could see these attached to a camera or laser sensor so you could "mine" a road from a slight distance.
Like he said it can be detonated when the target vehicle drives over a fiber optic cable, command detonated, or detonation via infra red sensors. And since it is a directed mine, I think it can hardly be compared to an ordinary anti-tank mine. You can shoot them out of roadside ditches or down from buildings and no longer have to rely on the road itself in order to hide it. It is more of an industrially produced IED than a simple mine.
Im my opinion the most interesting feature is that PARM hit the enemy vehicle in the side and does not explode under the front wheel or the mine roller.

Yeah I seen a lot of different version of these directional mine sometimes they even look like ordinary box with shape charges inside them instead of having a RPG Style flying out it shoots a shaped charge dream of molten whatever you call it to penetrate the armor also with different kind of ways to detonate them
Some kinds can have acoustic microphones to pick up the sound of heavy tanks or armored vehicles ordinary tripwires, pressure plates, manned triggered it's crazy on a different types of mines and anti-personnel weapons there is out there from the past and present and onto the future
One source said this one had a microphone. But it was the only one saying the PARM did, so I didn't include it in case it was inaccurate. But that sounds pretty cool--I expect it is sensitive enough that it wont detonate on cars, lorries, tractors etc.
Don't know exactly how it does it but it Maybe the sounds of tanks or heavy armored vehicles are recorded in imprinted into a system so it can identify what is friend an foe just my idea don't really know how they work just guessing it give me a idea to look up about it now
I have been using my works recording room, which I thought would be better since it is soundproof But when I listen back there's a sort of faint buzz. I think I will switch to recording from my laptop again.
"effective range 70m-80m" where mentioned in this video Polish MPB is effective up to 300m because it is like a bigger brother of the mine that you wanted to claim as "more powerful"... MPB-ZN is 45kg... www.army-technology.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2019/04/BELMA-off-route-mine-armour-6.jpg
Force of habit--my work needs me to do voice recordings using American terms. So they've unfortunately slipped into my everyday usage. I pronunce Z in the American way now too.
The Russians already got their hands on it at least a month ago..the amount of r&d that is being transferred to Russia(and most likely China) through these "donations" is mind blowing.
Effective thickness compared to homogenous steel armor. There is no point in saying the actual thickness of the composite armor since there are many types of composites that perform differently.
One little interesting fact: The glass fibre cable detecting the apporaching enemy vehicle cant be detected by a metal detector. Means that, if you dont dig it up or rip it out of the ground, you wont find it until its too late.
That was a complicated sentence...
But it made sense!
00:17 In 🇩🇪 -> Panzer = tank | Abwehr = anti, defense | Richt = directional | Mine = mine || = directional anti-tank mine = PanzerAbwehrRichtMine = PARM
Actually I think PARM is short for parmesan cheese.
What a nasty little device. And that tripwire function is pretty cool too.
Effectively what Germany has done is over-engineer the IED. But it's good, because lashing artillery shells together is time consuming and wastes ammunition.
That's a good comparison. A more effective and less discriminate IED.
Oh I can think of a few clever ways to hide this little tri-pod of death.
@@bleakfeather7004 Yeah, the fact it can be rotated and angled different ways opens up so many possibilities for destruction and places to hide it.
This mine can be easily placed even in urban areas. Inside a building or on top of a building. That 45° angle makes it a very dangerous weapon.
And if you are using a couple of them...preprammed lets say first vehicle and "put in number " the last vehicle...upsi road blocked...and prearranged artillery...it becomes nasty realy ....realy fast
Another weapon being sent to Ukraine I had no idea existed! The skipping vehicles part was genious!
Yeah, it's a very well designed mine.
@@suchomimus9921 skipping vehicles also allows several mines to be set up to strike the column simultaneously

Seems like a very flexible ORC stopper. Has to suck being an ordinary foot soldier these days.
So its basically the father of all claymore mines? Cool
Claymore predates the PARM
@@Mugdorna I think he knows that, i think he was just referring to it like the more badass, big daddy Claymore mine, not that it was older
The AT4 is also propert to be a roadside mine. Note the shortest distans to target, and lets party!
awesome
Hi you do great videos, but please normalise your audio, the volume jumps from low to high and vice-versa.

i recently saw a video of Russian armour being hit by a PARM. The shaped charge cut right though both sides of the vehicle.
they can also hit from behind the convoy.

Essentially a platter mine for professionals
Why do they call it a "mine"?
"Figurative meaning "ruin or destroy by slow or secret methods""
"in reference to old tactic of tunneling under enemy fortifications to blow them up".
in Russian "mine" is used kinda similarly to a granade sometimes. For example a mortar is a "mine thrower".

how are they deployed? can they be deployed remotely with an artillery round, or do they require to be set up in person?
obviously some has to set them up on the side of action, how else do you want to get the alignment right and the trigger cable set up...
Did you even watch the video?

2:51 Armour thickness of 700 mm? That is 0.7 meter
He is probably talking about effective thickness when compared to homogenous steel armor. The composite is not actually 700mm thick.
IED is term applied to when the enemy uses them, but the enemy lacks the wealth to have better product promotion and advertising
