Angry British troops have used the mighty IED-busting Trojan tank against the Taliban in Nad-e-Ali district of Helmand provinceĀ in Afghanistan on Monday during Operation Moshtarak, The Sun reports.
The Trojan is the 'Swiss army knife' of the forces -- built to cut through the harshest
of terrain with its monster tool kit.
A plough protects the crew as it clears a path through a minefield. It can rip devices out the ground.
Explosions bounce off the Trojan's 65-ton bulk.
It also carries thermal imaging kit, low-light vision cameras, long-range magnifying devices, a remote-control machine gun and anti-tank weapons.
The Trojan does in seconds what may take the Counter-IED Taskforce days -- at huge risk.
The impact of such an awesome vehicle is obvious.
