Contact hydrostatic mine by Sauler-Harle, modified for deployment from submarines. The design was similar to the more widespread wz. 08/39, the only difference was in the detonation circuit (the electrolyte in the SM 5 mine was seawater) and the anchoring system. The depth of the mine was maintained by a special hydrostatic device in the anchor carriage.
