Description[]
The M15 anti-tank blast mine is an American design originating from the Second World War. The mine is activated via a mechanical pressure switch, and when sufficient downward pressure is applied, it will activate the fuze and trigger detonation. Containing about 10.3 kilograms of Composition B Explosive, it is capable of inflicting mobility kills on heavy armor or dealing critical damage to lighter vehicles. They can be hidden by constructing them with your entrenching tool, making them harder to find.
Mines can also be disarmed with your entrenching tool.

Gameplay[]
- Once placed on the ground, a mine can further be concealed by equipping the Entrenching tool and digging the mine into the ground with LMB. Conversely, an enemy mine can be destroyed by the Entrenching tool; simply dig it up by holding RMB.
- You can recover the mine by pressing the interaction button F when the mine is not concealed in the ground.
- Up to 10 mines can be deployed by a single Combat Engineer at once, as long as the Engineer can keep resupplying his ammunition.
- Light vehicles will be instantly destroyed by mines, but many heavier vehicles will simply have their wheels or tracks knocked out and receive a certain degree of damage depending on the vehicle's armor.
