Default Post bridging

I just watched a show on bridging equip. and the Canadian army is looking at a Hemitt launched post supported bridge currently being developed. The vertical posts have large feet on the bottom to spread the weight over a large area. I wouild think that German ones do also.
The Canadian system can bridge any length with additional spans added and it was only a couple of guys and very little physical labour. Very cool.
