A Mine Dispenser Missile (MDM) is a special type of support missile used by Imperial Titans. Like other support missiles the MDM takes up one carapace point on the Titan and is usually fitted before a battle.[1]

Instead of directly causing damage an MDM will scatter mines either over a wide area upon detonation or along the flight path of the missile. These mines are dangerous to other Titans since they circumvent Void Shields and directly attack the Titan itself. In addition to dropping real mines the MDM will also scatter "dummy" mines to confuse the enemy. Besides dropping an even mix of real and dummy mines an MDM can also carry a small number of special Vortex or Stasis mines with a larger number of dummy mines.[1]
