Russian forces have allegedly begun dropping 3D-printed anti-personnel (AP) mines from uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs)
The designation of these mines are not known
They are pressure-initiated mines, with a plastic high explosive fill, electric detonator, battery and initiation circuit
Images to the right show the outer and inner design, but there are reports of other models being deployed
This mine was covered in tape possibly to assist with camouflage in grass, or provide additional structural integrity when dropping from a UAV
3D-printed AP mines with simple designs could allow for easy mass manufacture and deployment
