FFV 028 mine

The FFV 028 is a series of steel cased Swedish anti-tank mines that use electronic fuzes.

The mines are circular, with a large Misznay Schardin effect warhead in the center of the mine, with the fuzing and sensor electronics located in the dead space above the main charge.

Once the mine is emplaced, a pre-set arming delay of up to 60 minutes is initiated, after which the magnetic sensor activates and will trigger the mine if a target passes overhead.

The main charge creates an explosively formed penetrator which is capable of penetrating the belly armour of any tank currently in existence, and generates substantial secondary blast and fragmentation effects.

The mine was ordered by the Swedish armed forces in 1982, where it is known as Stridsvagnsmina 6.
