hovercraft over a minefield
okay, if it really works that well, at least over pressure (weight-based) mines, why didn't we already know about it because the military and countries plagued by old minefields had been doing this for years? hovercrafts aren't new, certainly the military has access to them, and could do a similar experiment to what the guys did anytime they wanted, even extending to other types of mines, and making the hovercraft remote-controlled, so as to minimize risk when trying it with real mines
crossing a minefield is only a temporary solution anyway, the mines need to be removed, and, even though they did kind of 'hover' over several mines, there's no indication the use of a hovercraft could help with the removal and disposal of the mines, since someone would have to lean over the edge to do anything to the mines (remove them, or just put another charge on them to blow them up in a controlled way), and that would mess up the 'even weight distribution' that seems to be the 'secret' here
also, I wish that drone shot while the hovercraft drove over the field had had the mines' positions overlaid on the screen so we could see that they really were driving over them, I could only see the 'carving' in the ground part of the time, and that ground-level shot they kept using showed them missing at least the mine closest to the camera every time
