Explosives that lack a long range propulsion system are generally described as '''mines'''. Mines are expelled in the opposite direction of the carrying ship's current vector of travel, and are mainly designed to throw off aggressive pursuers. Most mines are equipped with a low power propulsion system controlled by an onboard computer, designed to move the mine towards the nearest vessel, in order to counteract any evasive maneuvers attempted by the vessel to avoid the mine. Some mines are specially designed for increased homing capabilities.

'''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.
  
Mines do not contain IFF recognition systems, and will track any ship closest to them no matter the affiliation - even the same ship that launched the mine.

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.

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.
