I got this picture from coworker who is at the moment working in Sudan. It looks like a AP mine or fuze box to me but I haven't found any information about it yet. Any help is appreciated.

I haven't got access to my non-digitized photos right now, but I recall seeing similar sized containers at an AP mine assembly point in Kuwait during the Gulf War. The containers I saw were filled with detonators to be placed into the mines just before laying. I don't remember which mine they were for, but we had a pretty good variety at that location, I can remember seeing VS-50s, TS-50s, Valmaras, PMNs, and Type 72s.
