Tacteg VS-50 APERS Training Mine + 5 CO2 Bulbs + 50g Coloured Powder

CO₂ Powered Chalk Marking EOD Training Aid

The TACTEG VS-50 APERS Training Mine has been developed to provide military, EOD, demining and specialist security organisations with a safe and realistic training aid for mine awareness, route clearance and explosive hazard recognition exercises.

Inspired by the dimensions and visual characteristics of the Italian VS-50 anti-personnel mine, the training aid is designed to replicate the presence of a buried or surface-laid threat without the risks associated with live explosive devices. The system enables instructors to create immersive and challenging training scenarios that reinforce detection, identification and response procedures.

Utilising a CO₂ powered activation system, the training mine produces an immediate visual chalk marking effect upon activation, providing clear indication of a strike, trigger event or incorrect approach. This instant feedback allows instructors and trainees to accurately assess performance during route clearance, EOD and battlefield awareness exercises.

Manufactured from durable materials and designed for repeated use, the VS-50 Training Mine offers a cost-effective and environmentally responsible alternative to disposable training aids. Lightweight, portable and quick to reset, it can be deployed across a wide variety of training environments including military training areas, urban operations facilities and specialist EOD training centres.
