Wouldn't munitions like the HIMARS with tungsten balls set off these mines they've used?

Why not make smaller versions to shot gun blast a path?

I think a mine-clearing line charge does something similar to what you have in mind.

"Shot gun blast a path" through the minefield. Brilliant, now you have all the troops in a line ready to be mowed down by the Russians.

If it were that easy they would have done it already.
