Weight isn't as much of a consideration for a ground based unit, so you can have a bigger boom. I don't know if that's really required, but it could be useful for clearing entrenched positions.
For armor, the least armored location is usually (pretty much always, maybe with some weird exception) on the bottom. If you can drive under it, especially with a bigger explosive, even the most heavily armored vehicle is toast.
That said, you do need to reach it which will be harder on the ground obviously. It will be interesting to see how useful it'll be. If it's cheaper or similarly priced to an airial drone, I'm sure it'll come in handy. It'd be a cool bonus if it can deploy its payload and leave before detonating it and be recovered, but I'm assuming that isn't an option.
