Naval Mine
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
(Redirected from Orbital Mine)
Naval Mines are large proximity- or contact-detonated mines laid in the depths of space or orbiting worlds as defensive measures. They are frequently laid by the Imperial Navy in vast minefields spanning thousands of kilometers of space for protection against pirates, Chaos, or Xenos fleets. They are also frequently used by Ork, Chaos, and pirate forces for defending hidden bases, disabling enemy craft, or deterring pursuers.[1][2]
