Tellermine 29

The Tellermine 29 is a round, metal-cased German anti-tank blast landmine.

It first entered service in 1929, and the initial German defence plan was to purchase 6,000 a year, but in January 1931 it was decided to speed up the purchase process, and 61,418 were ordered.

[3] The mine did see limited service during the Second World War, notably after D-Day in France, where allied troops reported encountering it.

29 fuzes that are normally set at an activation pressure of 125 kg, but can be set to function with a pressure of just 45 kg or even function as a tripwire fuze.

A training version of the mine designated T.Mi.29 (Ueb) was also produced that was filled with a smoke-generating main charge and holes along the circumference to allow the smoke to escape.
