Mine Submunition Ukraine ADAM / M67 / M72
Analyst Note 15 August 2026
This image shows a U.S. Area Denial Artillery Munition (ADAM), an anti-personnel scatterable landmine which is dispensed from the rear of M692 and M731 155 mm artillery gun projectiles. Each projectile contains 36 ADAM submunitions. The submunition can deploy up to seven tripwires out to 20 ft (6.1 m). Any movement of a tripwire or movement of the ADAM body will result in a small kill mechanism being ejected to a height of a 6–8 ft (1.8 m–2.4 m) prior to detonating. Each munition contains a small amount of depleted uranium. The ADAM was previously designated as either the M67 or M72, with the only difference being the self-destruct time delay. (ARES)

Mine Submunition Ukraine POM-2
Analyst Note 24 August 2026
Highlighted is a Russian POM-2 scatterable, high explosive, anti-personnel submunition which deploys six legs for stabilization upon impact and four pressure- and pull-sensitive 9.5m (31.17’) long tripwires which end in a ‘Y’ fashion with plastic weights. Upon deployment, nylon ribbons (seen in the foreground) are deployed to help ensure the submunition lands upright, in addition to the stabilizing legs. Originally designed to be dispensed by rockets and helicopters, the war in Ukraine has seen the POM-2 modified for deployment via drone, hand and even from RPGs. (ARES)
