Design
The landmine has a folding wire carrying handle and peep sights mounted on the top.
It is surface mounted on an aiming stand with a circular base.
Operation
On actuation, the landmine fires an Explosively Formed Projectile (EFP) shaped-charge (SC) designed to penetrate 50mm of armored steel at targets up to 80 meters away.
Command Detonated
The landmine can be command detonated, fitted with its standard 80-metre break wire loop, or used with the IRMAH infrared influence fuze.
The IRMAH, adopted in 1978, allows the landmine to be used in conditions where terrain, weather, enemy fire or troop passage precludes the use of the fragile break wire.
The IRMAH uses an infrared sensor to detect a vehicle or armored targets.
