M362 Anti-Tank Mine

"Fucking rabbits. Everywhere we go, some stupid faggot has introduced them and no matter how hostile the alien critters, bunnys survive. Stupid lil bastards like to snuggle up where the earth is warmest, usually on top of a landmine where it has warmed the soil above it. They won't set off a tank mine, not nearly heavy enough, but they will set off the APERS. Then its bunny heaven. Means at first glance, you can tell where anti tank mines are cos of the bunny droppings."

The is a UNSC anti tank mine.

Description
The M362 is a Anti tank mine, designed to 'catch the enemy off guard'. It is used after extensive use of other types of anti tank mine, which usually cause the enemy to deploy combat engineers who can easilly find the mines. The mine is positioned 5 m from the road it is intended to attack and aimed using an integrated sight. The seismic sensor detects approaching vehicles and alerts the infra-red sensor. When the vehicles reach the optimum target point the warhead is triggered. The mine can also be remote triggered from up to 100 meters away. The explosive content is a dozen large than usual incediary felchettes which penetrate the flanks of vehicles and cause internal fires.

Like all UNSC Mines it can be set to have a life span, after which it explodes and it can be deactivated and reactivated by coded signals. These signals are composed on near unbreakable codes, preventing the enemy from randomly bombarding the battlefield with codes to deactivate them.
