Complete Your Strike Aircraft's Specialized Loadout
MPM Hobbies' 1/32 scale aircraft mine collection represents specialized ordnance used for area denial, harbor blockade, and interdiction operations with museum-quality accuracy.

Historical Coverage & Applications
Our mine collection spans multiple eras of aerial mine warfare. The MLU-10/B land mine was extensively used during the Vietnam War by F-4 Phantom II and A-1 Skyraider aircraft for interdiction missions along the Ho Chi Minh Trail and other supply routes, creating area denial zones that disrupted enemy logistics. The Mk-65 Quick Strike represents modern mine warfare technology—a conversion kit that transforms standard Mk-82 bombs into sophisticated bottom mines for anti-ship operations, harbor blockade, and chokepoint denial. These mines are carried by modern strike aircraft including the A-6 Intruder, F/A-18 Hornet, and multi-role fighters. Compatible with popular 1/32 scale jet aircraft kits from all manufacturers.
Modeling Tips & Techniques
For best results, carefully clean all parts and test-fit suspension lugs to your aircraft's bomb racks before assembly. These mines feature fine surface details that respond beautifully to panel line washes and subtle weathering. The Mk-65 Quick Strike retains the basic Mk-82 bomb body with distinctive mine conversion kit components including tail fins and fuzing systems. The MLU-10/B features characteristic stabilizing fins and nose fuzing. Mines were typically finished in overall olive drab or gray with distinctive colored bands indicating fuze settings and mine type. Reference photos are invaluable for accurate color schemes and suspension hardware configuration specific to your aircraft type and mission era.
