The MUV is the fuze most commonly used in Soviet mines. It can be activated by pull on a loop-end striker retaining pin, as used in the POMZ antipersonnel mines; or by pressure on a winged pin, as used in the PMD series of antipersonnel mines. This fuze consists of a tubular case which houses a spring loaded striker. The MD-2 is the standard detonator for this fuze. A force of two pounds or more removes the striker retaining pin from the striker. The spring drives the striker against the percussion cap, which starts the firing chain.
Length: 56mm , diameter: 13mm. Functioning force: 900gram. Fuzes can be found made of metal, plastic or ebonite. |
