FMK-3
Antitank Mine

Description
The FMK-3 antitank mine is a conventional blast mine intended to destroy or damage wheeled and tracked vehicles. The olive drab mine uses an FML-1 antipersonnel mine as a fuze. The mine body has a plastic rectangular case with slightly tapered sides and rounded corners. The top has a recessed well with a small central opening through which an adapter fits. Each side of the mine has retaining pins which secure the mine body to the base. These mines were used extensively during the Falkland Island War.
