Here is the next, an unmarked off-route mine. The tube at the top is an optical sight, the piece at the bottom is a mounting point.

I'm confident it is this one :

Another question. Italy had a number of similar picket style trip flares and a mine or two which were frequently seen during the first Gulf War. The Iraq ordnance ID guide is one of the few commonly found references, but it only lists the VS-T and the P-25. Does anyone have an ID on this one?

Very interesting! Is it possible to get more information?

 

[sgdbdr]

I have it under the name VAR/IG but I don't have any information

Tecnovar V-ST

Stecol is it V-ST, V-ST-02 or VS-T. VS-T looks a lot different and I assume it is illuminating.
The TM-60 Series called it also VAR-IG like sgdbdr says. So who has the answer???
