It was initially produced for the Italian army in 1970s , and was exported to a large number of countries . The mines body is circular with a ribbed plastic body split into upper and lower halves . The upper half holds the pressure - sensitive fuze mechanism , which is covered by a truncated rubber cone . The fuze is covered by a safety cap that prevents accidental activation . The safety cap also has a threaded well , which holds the detonator during transit . The mine is armed by transferring the detonator from the fuze cap to the well in the base of the mine , the safety cap is then removed . Pressure on the central pressure plate , compresses the spring until the pressure is enough to shear the plastic retaining pins . It is a minimum metal design . It ' s normally deployed with the main body underground with the raised pressure fuze protruding above ground . The mine can be laid underwater and doesn ' t float . It is moderately resistant to overpressure due to the small surface area of the pressure fuze .
