Gen Abdel Rahman Abu Ragheef was the representative administrator of operations in the deliberately critical area of Anbar, while Brig Safeen Abdel Majeed was a divisional officer.
'Islamic State' activists control Ramadi, 100km (60 miles) west of Baghdad.
An Iraqi hostile to recover the city has been gaining moderate ground.
The bombarding happened in the Jerayshi territory.
Brig Gen Yahya Rasool told state television that the bomb went off as the armed force caught an explosives-loaded vehicle which they accepted was focusing on them. "In any case, the subsequent blast prompted [their] affliction."
No less than 10 others were injured in the impact, he said.
The fight to recover Ramadi is being driven by the military and the police, bolstered by Shia volunteer armies, Sunni tribal contenders and US-drove coalition air strikes.
The city was caught by Islamic State (IS) warriors in May – one of a progression of humiliating thrashings incurred upon Iraqi powers in the course of the most recent year – and a huge number of regular folks fled.
The passings of the two senior armed force authorities have drummed up some excitement in Baghdad – where various political figures paid tribute to them – and will do nothing to enhance the confidence of state strengths as they attempt to unstick IS from Ramadi.
US Guard Secretary Ashton Carter said in May that the defeat of Iraqi troops in a matter of days when the city fell demonstrated that they did not have the will to battle.
Mr Carter told CNN that the Iraqis had decided to pull back regardless of the way that they "unfathomably dwarfed" IS powers.
In any case, Head administrator Haider al-Abadi reacted by saying that he was astounded at the US resistance secretary's remarks and that Ramadi would soon be recovered.
Mr Abadi has however made room for a court military of military authorities who deserted their posts at the city.
