I have a children's wallchart with a variety of weapons and military vehicles. One of the items is 火箭扫雷车. I think I understand the meaning (It's a kind of minesweeper that uses rockets to clear minefields), however I am stumped on an elegant translation. Also I would like to know if this is a vehicle known to the average Chinese mainlander, It's not a weapon known to most westerners.

After searching on google I found "Minesweeping Rocket System" to be a somewhat official translation to "火箭扫雷车". |

I'm not sure if translation questions should be on-topic or not, but I think a literal "Rocket minesweeper" or "missile minsweeper" would be appropriate. Military vehicles don't usually have elegant names. I found one example of the term "rocket minesweeper" specifically referring to a Chinese military vehicle. |
