EMF mines on S-100

Description

Write an introduction to the article in 2-3 small paragraphs. Briefly tell us about the history of the development and combat using the weaponry and also about its features. Compile a list of air, ground, or naval vehicles that feature this weapon system in the game.

Vehicles equipped with this weapon

General info

Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the mine.

Effective damage

Describe the type of damage produced by this type of mine (high explosive, splash damage, etc)

Comparison with analogues

Compared to the near-peers, the EMF has an outstanding explosive filler of 350 kg of SW39a, what translates to 448 kg TNT. The price for such a large explosive filler is a heavy mass of the mine (1,100 kg each), but comparatively speaking it still has an excellent percentage of the mass filled with explosives. For example, only 19% of the French B4M mine is the explosive filler, while for the EMF it's an excellent 32%.


Usage in battles

Describe situations when you would utilise this mine in-game (vehicle, pillbox, base, etc)

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Excellent explosive filler, one of the best among naval mines

Cons:

  • No vessel available with more than 4 mines at a time

History

Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of the weapon in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Weapon-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />.

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.

Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:

  • reference to the article about the variant of the weapon;
  • references to approximate analogues by other nations and research trees.
