Anchor mine is a kind of underwater weapon and a type of mine. It is an early triggered mine. It has a fixed position and is fixed at a certain depth. It will detonate only when it collides with the enemy ship.

A mine whose body system is left in the water at a certain depth by a lightning anchor and a lightning rope. It is mainly used to attack various ships in the deep sea. It can be deployed by surface ships, submarines, aircraft, etc. According to the strike mode, anchor mines are divided into passive anchor mines and active anchor mines. Passive anchor mine is an anchor mine with a strike radius similar to the warhead damage radius, including triggered anchor mine, non triggered anchor mine and rocket floating anchor mine; Active anchor mine is an anchor mine that has self navigation and self-control capability after finding the target, and its attack range is far greater than the damage radius of the warhead, including homing anchor mine, directional attack anchor mine, etc. Anchor mine consists of mine body, lightning rope, lightning anchor, depth determination device, target detection device (fuze), etc Thunder body. The triggered and non triggered anchor mines are equipped with explosives, detonating devices, fuses and auxiliary instruments. In order to ensure that the anchor mine body has a certain positive buoyancy, the explosive loading coefficient is low, and the charge of large anchor mines is generally 200~300 kg; The rocket floating anchor mine is equipped with a rocket warhead in its body, or the mine body itself is a rocket warhead; The active anchor mine is equipped with a homing warhead and an open cover launcher. The warhead is Homing Torpedo Or missiles. ② Leso. It is used to connect the lightning body and lightning anchor. ③ Thunderbolt. For sea bottom mooring. The mine body is connected with the mine anchor before deployment; After entering the water or reaching the fixed time or the set depth, the lightning body is separated from the lightning anchor, and the lightning rope is released under the control of the depth setting device to keep the lightning system at the set depth. ④ Depth setting device. It is divided into three categories: surface depth determination, underwater depth determination and underwater depth determination. ⑤ Target detection device (fuze). The initial anchor mines mostly used touch fuzes (also known as antenna type or inertial impact type), which were called trigger anchor mines; Modern anchor mines often use non trigger fuzes, which are called non trigger anchor mines. The non triggered anchor mine has a higher lightning strike probability than the triggered anchor mine, but its damage capacity is reduced. Non triggered anchor mines mainly use acoustic fuzes, and some use magnetic fuzes to attack submarines. Typical non triggered anchor mines include the Soviet KCM anchor mine and the American MK56 anchor mine. The total weight of the KCM anchor mine is 1300 kg, and the mine laying depth is 700 meters. The biggest weakness of traditional anchor mines is their poor anti scanning and anti hunting ability. In history, they were used together with mine protectors to protect anchor mines and destroy contact mine sweepers. In the 1950s, a short tether floating anchor mine appeared in the anchor mine family. The depth of mine laying is generally within 200 meters. As the mine body is close to the seabed, the anti sweeping ability is improved, but the trajectory dispersion is large, reducing the damage probability.
