VS-JAPfragmentation mineThe mine has one fuze well and no power source. The VS JAP is an Italian bounding fragmentation mine with an irregular-sided cylinder shaped body. The fuze has three pressure prongs or can be set up for tripwire initiation from the center activation prong. After the activation fuze has been initiated, the fuze fires an igniter cap which, in turn, fires the propelling charge. The internal body of the mine is then projected into the air approximately 45 cm. At that point a lanyard attached to the outer casing of the mine (still buried in the soil) and a striker fuze mechanism in the internal mine body is pulled taught, activating the detonator and booster in the internal body of the mine. The main charge of the internal body is then detonated, launching the 1200 fragments surrounding the body in a 360 degree direction. The lethal radius of the mine is approximately 25 meters.Diameter: 130mm Weight: 2.8kg Explosive: 550g Range: 50m Explosive/filler type: Composition BItaly
