Tellermine 42

The Tellermine 42 is a German World War II anti-tank mine. It was basically an improved Tellermine 35 (Stahl). The most visible difference between the two models is the smaller diameter of the top cover which was made to ensure the detonation below Soviet T-34 and KV-1 tanks. A further improvement was the Tellermine (Pilz) 43 which was introduced in March 1943.

Tellermine 43

The Tellermine 43 was produced over 3.6 million between March 1943 and the end of the Second World War. It was the last stage in the development of the anti-tank mines of the Wehrmacht. Its development was primarily aimed at simplifying production. The mine, which was placed concealed or open, was triggered by pressure on the pressure plate on the lid. Additional pull fuses in the side and base of the mine, as well as relief fuses, were responsible for ensuring that the mine could be picked up again. A pressure of 210 kilograms was required to trigger the mine.

Copies of the mine were produced by several countries, including Denmark (M/47), France (Mle. 1948), and Yugoslavia (TMM-1).
