TM-62M
Antitank Mine

Description
The TM-62 series of conventional antitank blast mines are considered the current mainstay of the former Soviet antitank mine inventory. They exist in four distinct versions: the TM-62M (metallic case), TM-62P (plastic case), TM-62B (caseless), and tm62D (wooden case). All are circular except for the TM-62D, which is rectangular. The base of the TM62M has six stability ridges radiationg from its center.
