PTM-3 mine

The PTM-3 is a Soviet scatterable anti-tank mine that can be deployed either by hand, vehicle, artillery, or helicopter. The mine's case is configured to produce a shaped charge effect on five sides.

Once deployed the mine arms itself after sixty seconds. The mine uses a magnetic influence fuze that detonates the mine when a vehicle passes over it. It is also reported to have an anti-handling device which is sensitive to movement.

gollark: It wouldn't need language changes. Just a community-agreed-upon set of libraries providing those useful utilities.
gollark: In Python.
gollark: Also, dependency management is pure evil.
gollark: Lua does have libraries, but they're not really as convenient as the quadrillion built-in Python ones. Though frankly many of the builtin ones are awful and you need external ones half the time.
gollark: I could probably replace much of my Python usage with Lua if there was a good set of libraries I could use for stuff like HTTP, filesystem access, Unicode string handling, string manipulation generally, and all the other random tasks I need.
