fragmentation mine

Or sort of like a portable fragmentation mine.

Fragmentation mines leapt into the air, spraying a thousand steel splinters like little daggers.

It also enabled the fougasse to be tripwire activated, turning it into an anti-personnel fragmentation mine.

It is a hand laid directional fragmentation mine which is normally command actuated (always secure command wires).

The MMN-2 is a Georgian Claymore type directional anti-personnel fragmentation mine.

The NO-MZ 2B is a Vietnamese anti-personnel fragmentation mine.

Fragmentation mines are generally much larger and heavier than blast mines, and contain a large amount (often several kilograms) of ferrous metal.

Because fragmentation mines generally contain a much larger charge than blast mines, they can cause severe damage to an unarmoured vehicle which runs directly over one.

Anti-personnel mines may be classified into blast mines or fragmentation mines, the latter may or may not be bounding mines.

And while land mines were the biggest threat at the time, Mr. Weaver said his group began worrying about a more insidious one: a fragmentation mine called the M-18 Claymore.

The HAMDY mine is an Egyptian directional fragmentation mine based on the US Claymore mine and produced by the Maasara Company.

IMAS specifies standards for such equipment but draws attention to its limitations and states that at close quarters, antipersonnel fragmentation mines and antitank mines overmatch PPE currently available.

Combining the effects of a tripwire activated bounding fragmentation mine with a cluster bomb, it was devastating to massed attackers but required high maintenance due to the susceptibility of black powder to dampness.

The SAPM (Scatterable Anti-Personnel Fragmentation Mine) is a Chinese scatterable anti-personnel fragmentation mine.

KPNLAF forces were adept at the use of landmines, particularly blast mines such as the PMN-2 and M-14, as well as bounding fragmentation mines such as the M16A2 and the M2A4.

Over time the cordon sanitaire was breached or was subject to erosion and so, in many sections, a second belt of directional fragmentation mines guarded by anti-personnel mines were laid "inland" of the cordon sanitaire.

While blast mines are designed to cause severe injury to one person, fragmentation mines (such as the World War II era German S-mine) are designed to project fragments across a wide area, causing shrapnel wounds to nearby personnel.

Ten minutes later, the great, grey forbidding mass of the Szarhaza came into sight, an old, impregnably walled building surrounded now by three concentric rings of barbed wire with ploughed earth between, the wire no doubt electrified and the earth heavily sown with fragmentation mines.
