M18 Claymore
Featured In Battlefield 3
Used By Support
Description A directional anti-personnel mine that is detonated by motion in front of the mine. The mine can be passed safely if the target is moving at low speeds.

How to Use the M18 Claymore

M18 Claymore is a type of explosive that will activate once a fast-moving soldier passes by. You can pass through it safely while walking or crouching. One charge of it won't be enough to take out a soldier. Take note that it won't explode when a vehicle passes through it unless it was set off by another explosive, like grenades or rockets.
