MN-111

Notes: This Polish antitank mine is designed to be scattered from aircraft and helicopters. Upon impact with the ground, six petals unfold and put the mine in the right orientation. The mine must be dropped from at least 100 meters for proper arming and to sink the proper depth into the ground. The mine is detonated by pressure, by the magnetic field of a passing vehicle at least 500 kg in size, or by an attempt to move or disturb the mine. Disarming attempts are tricky (one level harder), and the mine is 50% likely to be set off by a mine detector, or 10% likely to be set off by probing with a metal instrument such as a knife blade. The MN-111 is unaffected by overpressure.

MN-121

Notes: This is a Polish scatterable antitank mine dispensed from aerial pods and FASCAM artillery rocket rounds. The mine descends on a parachute to ensure proper orientation upon landing. The mine requires a minimum drop of 100 meters to arm properly. The fuse is magnetic, triggered by the passing of a vehicle of at least 500 kg; this fuse can also be triggered by a mine detector (50% chance) or a knife blade-sized metal object probing it (10% chance upon direct contact). As this mine rests on top of the ground, it is normally easy to detect. The MN-121 is unaffected by overpressure.

MPP-B Wierzba

Notes: This Polish antitank mine is of conventional construction. It is very similar to the Russian TM-62 and can be laid mechanically or manually. The MPP-B has a provision for booby-trapping in the base of the mine. The normal fuse requires 200 kg of pressure to detonate, but an alternate magnetic fuse is available. The magnetic fuse requires the passing of a vehicle of 500 kg or larger; but it is 50% likely to be set off by a mine detector, or 10% likely by direct probing by a knife or similar-sized metal object. The magnetic fuse can also be set off by pressure.
