	Naval mine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mines can be laid in many ways: by purposebuilt minelayers, refitted ships, submarines, airplanes and even by dropping them into a harbour by hand.
		Limpet mines are a special form of contact mine which are attached to the target by magnets and left, and are so named because of the superficial similarity to the mollusk limpet.
		The mines are usually equipped to be turned into "normal" mines with a switch (which prevents the enemy from simply capturing the controlling station and deactivating the mines), detonated by hand or be allowed to detonate on their own.

	Naval mine
		Naval mines are anti-ship or anti-submarine weapons, which like landmines are static weapons deposited by a navy, left there to wait until they are triggered by the approach of an enemy ship.
		Naval mines were used in World War II, notably by Germany in the Battle of the Atlantic.
		The Quickstike is a family of shallow water aircraft laid mines used by the United States primarily against surface craft.

	Mines - Dumb Bombs
		As the detonation depth increases, particularly in excess of 180 feet, the effect of the gas bubble causing damage is greatly diminished; there-fore, bottom mines are rarely used in waters exceeding 180-200 feet.
		Captor mines have also been developed that actually launch a smart torpedo that then passively and actively homes in on the target before detonation.
		Mines are classified according to their delivery method, the position they assume in the water, their method of actuation, and their use.

	Operational Aircraft Mines
		The Mk 55 mine is equipped with a firing system that is responsive, either singly or in combination, to the acoustic, magnetic, and/or pressure influence of a passing ship.
		The mine is armed by a hydrostatic initiator, which is held in the safe position by a single arming wire.
		To conform with safety and ammunition stowage requirements, mines are normally received aboard ship in assembly configurations C or D. Aviation Ordnancemen are not required to assemble mines, but they are required to be qualified and certified in mine handling and aircraft loading procedures.

		Like the Turtle, these sea mines were unsuccessful when used against the British fleet in Philadelphia in January 1778, although the resulting "Battle of the Kegs" did cause a few casualties and inspired a well-known Revolutionary War poem.
		Many different kinds of mines were used by the Confederates, with one of the most effective being the frame torpedo, which was a large nose-fuzed artillery shell mounted on a wooden frame and located where a ship might strike it.
		Mining during World War II As far as is known, no enemy ship was sunk by the approximately 20,000 mines used in defensive minefields placed in US waters.

		They are also used as parts of other weapons; the Mark 46 torpedo becomes the warhead section of the ASROC (Anti-Submarine rocket) and the Captor mine uses a submerged sensor platform that releases a torpedo when a hostile contact is detected.
		Mines that are delivered by aircraft are usually carried and dropped in much the same manner as bombs.
		As a ship passes over the mine, the mine senses the pressure difference created by the movement of the ship through the water.
