Anti-tank mine TTM-62
Title: Anti-tank mine TM-62
Abbreviated name: TM-62
Brief History
TM-62M anti-tank mines. The mine can be laid manually or with mechanical pavers of the series: PMR-1, PMR-2, PMR-3, PMZ-4, GMZ-2, GMZ-3 and in flight using VMR-2 . Janes states that during the test of the TM-62M mine, the explosion broke through the hull of the tank Centurion and killed the animals inside the vehicle.
The TM-62 series mines can also use MVN-72 and MVN-80 lighters developed for the TM-72 and TM-80 mine series. These lighters respond to vibrations or changes in the magnetic field.
