With the introduction of DSCore (25th Febuary 2019) (Discovery Freelancer Version 4.91 Patch 5), Ship Equipment statistic pages and Ship Equipment pages will not be updated anymore. Or not regularly atleast. They will be kept for historical reasons. DSCore will give you the most up-to-date info you can get about almost everything you need to know about Equipment and Ship statistics.

Mine

Mines are explosive munitions that lack a long-range propulsion system, and have very rudimentary short-range propulsion. They are typically dropped from the rear of a Fighter or Bomber (and some Freighters), and simply drift towards the nearest mass object, and then detonate on impact. Unlike other projectile weapons, mines do not explode when they reach the end of their life, but instead become inert.

Explosion damage does Direct damage to everything within the explosion radius. This includes any unshielded equipment, such as the target's guns and support equipment, but also includes the attacker if he gets too close.

Mines can also be detonated by Cruise Disruptors and other missiles, and can be led off-target by Countermeasures, pushed off-target by Battleship Flak Turrets, and can also be evaded with defensive maneuvers.
