Are Sentinel's frontal plough like treads supposed to be anti minefields?

Yes, I would imagine that, from a technical/lore standpoint, these ploughs would serve as mine protection as well as an extra bit of armour to cover the front of the treads. This has no direct impact on gameplay since the Sentinel still takes damage from mines but at least it can survive a few.

I can speak from experience
No, the mine plough is only for visual detail. The Sentinel is not mine-resistant. |

IMO it's more for vehicle crushing than mine countering.

But for crushing vehicles you'd need to move over them and a plow wouldn't help with that.

Well, regardless, it'd be better to remove mine plows than make Sentinels invulnerable to minefields, but neither of this is going to happen, because those look cool and because Russia doesn't need any more advantage over ECA, imho.
