	Mines do not move of their own power after being deployed.

They do not detonate in the proximity of non-hostile ships, but can still damage non-hostiles and even the pilot's own ship within their blast radius, so care is advised in crowded battle zones.

		⚫	The '''Mine Launcher''' is a [[weapon]] module that drops explosive mines. Once mines are dropped they will detonate when any hostile ship enters its proximity. Enough mines in the same location can quickly destroy small and medium sized ships, and cause severe damage to large ones. Damage from a mine is explosive with area effect, and is much more effective against hull than shields.
