Best deployed as a defensive measure, the AAM Proximity-Fused Aerial Mine is primarily used to dissuade or destroy enemy units when they penetrate critical airspace. The mine utilizes a proximity fuse in conjunction with a FF reader, which results in a detonation when in proximity to enemy units or when there is a direct collision by any type of aircraft. Deployment of weapon found to be too close to ground features or terrain will be preempted by the aircraft’s weapon system and the AAM will not be deployed.
