Abatis

Abatis

Abatis or slaughtered is a term used in defensive fortifications to designate an obstacle formed by branches of slaughtered trees placed in rows, in which its points are directed towards the enemy. There are abutments in which the branches are intertwined by wires, and are usually used in conjunction with other obstacles. Abatises improvised by Japanese troops during World War II. Abbatises used to keep the enemy under fire for as long as possible. Although used since the days of the Roman Empire, abatises are rarely seen today, having been replaced by wire obstacles. However, when the barbed wire supply is scarce, the abatises can be used as an alternative. Abatis formed by large whole trees can be used as an improvised anti-tank defense. A major disadvantage of abatises, in contrast to wire obstacles, is that they can be destroyed by fire. Abatis ou abatida é um termo usado em fortificações defensivas para designar um obstáculo formado por galhos de árvores abatidas postas em fileiras, em que suas pontas são direcionadas para o inimigo. Existem abatises em que os galhos são entrelaçados por arames, e normalmente são utilizados em conjunto com outros obstáculos. Abatises improvisados por tropas japonesas durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial. Abatises usados para manter o inimig sob fogo pelo maior tempo possível. Embora utilizados desde os tempos do Império Romano, os abatises raramente são vistos hoje em dia, tendo sido substituídos pelos obstáculos de arame. Entretanto, quando o suprimento de arame farpado é escasso, os abatises podem ser usados como alternativa. Abatis formados por grandes árvores inteiras podem ser usados como uma defesa anti-tanque improvisada. Uma grande desvantagem dos abatises, em contraste com os obstáculos de arame, é que podem ser destruídos pelo fogo.
