Analyst Note:
This image depicts a Russian PFM-1 or PFM-1S submunition. These are small anti-personnel scatterable landmines constructed using a plastic (low-density polythene) body and a liquid high explosive fill. They are fitted with a pressure fuze, and may be green, white, sand (tan), or brown (as seen here) in colour. The PFM-1S incorporates a nominal self-destruct with a delay of approximately 40 hours, although they may remain active for far longer and are known to randomly self-destruct weeks after deployment. They weigh approximately 70 g (2.47 oz) and are typically dispensed from 250 kg (551 lb) and 500 kg (1,102 lb) class dispensers by the hundreds. The war in Ukraine has seen them dispensed from UAVs.
