Teller mine is an anti-tank, anti-vehicle landmine that was developed by Germany during World War II. It is named after its inventor, Ernst Teller. The mine consists of a circular casing with a pressure plate on top and contains about 5.5 kg of explosive. When pressure is applied to the pressure plate, the mine is detonated, causing severe damage to the vehicle or tank above it.
The teller mine was widely used during World War II, particularly on the Eastern Front. It was also used in the Korean War and the Vietnam War. The mine was known for its effectiveness against heavily armored vehicles and tanks. However, it was also unpredictable, and often injured or killed civilians who unwittingly stepped on them.
Today, the teller mine is still considered a threat in some areas, particularly in countries with a history of conflict. Demining organizations work to remove these mines and other explosive remnants of war to prevent further casualties.
