Ukraine deploying weapon first used by the Romans to grind Russian vehicles to a halt
Published on Tue, Apr 23rd 2024 News & Politics Rectangular HD
A simple but effective device, inspired by techniques once used by the Roman Empire, is being used to disrupt Russian vehicles by the Ukrainian armed forces.
Known as a caltrop, the device is a four-pronged, heavy gauge steel puncturing spike which can be used to disable vehicles.
The idea originated from a technique used by the Romans to disrupt enemy cavalry and horses and its design means one devastating spike is always thrust upwards.
