M1935 mine

The M1935 (Mle 1935) is a French heavy anti-tank mine. It consists of a large heavy steel base plate with a hinged thin steel lid. Inside the lid it has a rectangular steel container, which holds the explosive charge. The mines are laid at a minimum interval of six feet.

A pressure of eight hundred pounds crushes the lid onto the pressure fuse, triggering the mines main charge. The mine uses either the M1935 or M1936 pressure fuse.
