What makes it a brushbreaker as opposed to a run of the mill plow I'm not certain. It does have a colter running in front of the plow share, but that's the only difference I can see from a standard plow.
Possibly what makes it a brushbreaker plow is the guide mounted behind the share. It would run against the side of the furrow, keeping the plow running straight when it hit obstacles such as roots and rocks.
