Maham 7 Mine

Maham 7 is a bottom mine with 3 acoustic, subsonic and 3-axes magnetic sensors known as a hidden mine. It is used against medium tonnage ships, landing crafts, and small submarines. This mine can be laid by surface ships, airplane (by parachute) and helicopter. ADVANTAGES This low weight mine can be applied in very shallow waters by ships. Its low weight and volume make it possible for mine-laying ships to carry more mines. The mine’s G.R.P body and its special form can deviate sonar waves sent by minesweepers, so detection is difficult for minesweeper. The weight proportion of explosive charge to total weight is more than others. The mine has safety mechanism against explosions around it. SAFETY MEASURES ● Transportation safety lock ● Hydrostatic switch, ● Separation of primer from booster until complete laying into the water
