What is the difference between an anti-personnel landmine and an anti-tank landmine?
A. Anti-personnel mines are primarily designed to be exploded by the presence, proximity, or contact of a person and to incapacitate, injure, or kill. Anti-tank or anti-vehicle landmines are designed to explode with the presence, proximity, or contact of a vehicle, but the presence of a person is not normally enough to trigger them. Anti-vehicle mines are usually used on or along roadways and other transportation lanes to prevent the movement of enemy vehicles.
