Talk:Limpet Mine
This page is a bit too broad. It's covering an entire type. Can we be more specific? --Funkychinaman (talk) 14:47, 30 May 2017 (EDT)
- As it is the naval mine, it doesn't match out standards. Greg-Z (talk) 15:24, 30 May 2017 (EDT)
- As it is right now, absolutely not. There's be a better case if it was for a specific type of limpet mine. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:35, 30 May 2017 (EDT)
- I could not really find that much info about this device. Any help anybody? Thinking about it I got some British mine manuals I think, can you give me a few more days so I can try to figure out a bit more info? BTW it is an infantry placed naval mine. Placed by a single diver so my way of thinking was that in general it is no different than an anti tank mine but simply against water vehicles. Don't you think this would generally qualify if I found out the specific type?--Hchris (talk) 17:23, 30 May 2017 (EDT)
- I get that, but we wouldn't allow a page for just "Land Mine". --Funkychinaman (talk) 18:29, 30 May 2017 (EDT)

The Limpet Mine is a magnetic naval mine. It got its name because of the similarity to the sea snail called limpet which sticks tightly to hard surfaces. The mine is usually attached by a swimmer or diver. It is a time fuzed device. Some of versions are feature a so called anti-handling device meaning that if somebody tries to remove it, it will explode. It was initially invented by the British shortly before World War II.
