The MON-100 is a circular, sheet metal bodied, directional type of anti-personnel mine designed and manufactured in the early 1960s by the Soviet Union.
[1] The MON-100 mine body has a smooth, well finished appearance with a webbing handle mounted on the upper edge.
The MON 100 can be command actuated using a PN manual inductor attached by demolition cable to an EDP-R electric detonator.
It can also be actuated by a variety of booby trap (BT) switches including: The MON-100 will usually be mounted above ground level on the surface or up in trees to give the greatest dispersion of fragments.
Depending on its actuation method the MON-100 may be resistant to blast overpressure from explosive breaching systems like the Giant Viper and M58 MICLIC.
