the em-52 mine (also known as T-1) is a submarine-laid fast-rising rocket-propelled bottom mine. It is laid in the sea bottom and will rise to surface with its rocket propulsion. The mind is unguided.(from sinodefence

The Mao-4 (M-4) acoustic moored mine is China’s first indigenously developed sea mine. It is designed to attack medium-size surface ships and submarines. It’s detector is said to have strong resistance to the background noise.

The Mao-2 (M-2) moored mine is a Chinese copy of the Soviet KSM medium mine developed in the 1950s. It is carried by surface ships and is designed to attack surface ships. It is particularly suitable for blocking enemy seaports and sea routes.
