CZK - PT Mi-P (protitanková mína)

The PT Mi-P anti-tank blast mine is designed for setting up anti-tank blast barrages.


It is by its nature a anti-personnel impact contact mine highly resistant to overpressure in the shock wave front.



It is laid by hand by embedding mainly in overgrown terrain, snow, etc. Considering that the mine can be activated by the full width of the tank (vehicle), it replaces 3 to 4 anti-tank pressure contact mines at the same barrage density.



The explosion of the mine occurs when a hard object with a force of about 30 N strikes the Ro-9's nozzle.


When detonated, the mine will puncture the tank's belt to a width of 600 mm, damaging its undercarriage and thus disabling the tank from combat. If the mine explodes between the tracks, it pierces the armour to a thickness of 150 mm and damages the tank considerably, taking out the tank crew. In most cases, the tank burns up.


PT Mi-Ps are laid exclusively by hand, embedded in terrain with vegetation that allows good mine concealment, as the detonator protrudes about 500 mm above the terrain.



Description :


The body of the mine is made of sheet steel and forms the casing for the blasting charge - a cast TNT/H-50/50 mixture. The cumulative liner is made of 4 mm thick steel plate. On the side there is a point welded fuse holder with a strap for carrying the mine.


Only Ro-9 and Žk combination fuzes are used to adjust the PT Mi-P.
