System Description
MN103 - MANTA is a multi-influence shallow water sea mine, designed to be effective against landing crafts and small-mid tonnage vessels. The mine can be laid by surface vessels, helicopters and aircraft. The unique shape, the low target strenght and magnetic signature make MN103 - MANTA very difficult to be detected. MN103 - MANTA has been combat proven with excellent performance. The mine logic is based upon a state of the art analysis of the target acoustic and magnetic influences. The option of a cable remote control increases the flexibility of employ in harbour, strait or port defence. |
