PT-Mi Ba III Czech mine

Does anyone have some good pictures of the PT-Mi Ba III Czeck landmine trainer? Also does it have the same nomenclature as the HE version? I am also wondering if it uses a smoke charge or is it just inert?

I have looked at Lex's site and saw the one training mine, but couldn't read the nomenclature.

Thanks,

Joe
 
The official designation of the practice version is:
Cv PT Mi-Ba III

It has a central screw cover with 6 holes which are closed by laquered paper. The mine body is encircled by a white ring on the top.

Thanks everyone ...

Next question ... Does it use a smoke charge or is it just inert? I see by the document that it uses the RO-2 so I am guessing it uses some sort of a charge.

Also, what are the PN PT Mi-Ba III and the Cv HU PT Mi-Ba III listed on the document?

Thank again,

Joe
 
PN PT Mi Ba III (PROTIDNOVY NASTAVEC is a stick attachment for initiation under the belly of the tank rather than under a track. It uses a different top cover of the mine called HORNI UZAVER - HU PT Mi Ba III - it has a training variant Cv HU PT M iBa III.

The training variant of HU doesnt have No 6.
Best Regards, Bob
