CIRD Information request
 
The Canadian Indestructible Roller Device (CIRD) was a Second World War anti-mine device mounted on AFVs. Does anyone have any detailed information about the device, which appears to be some sort of mine-detonating roller, which they are willing to share, please?

Thanks

Mike

Hello Mike,

I did a quick search and found this site that shows the CIRD at different angles... accessed 20th October 2025 from, https://panzerserra.blogspot.com/201...-canadian.html.

Scroll down from the first photograph by the way - it is a bit of a diversion.

Apart from some CIRD photographs there are also some of tanks fitted with an Anti-Mine Reconnaissance Castor Roller (AMRCR). After the photographs there are some drawings of the CIRD.

Kind regards
Lionel
