| The '''Type 14 magnetic anti-tank mine/antimatter charge''',{{Ref/Book|Id=AoH|AoH|Page=107|Detail=The name provided in the text on the page is supported by the in-game decals on the model for the bomb.}} or '''No.14 MK5 anti-tank mine''',{{Ref/Reuse|Decal}} is a piece of [[antimatter]] explosive ordnance used by the [[United Nations Space Command]]. | | The '''Type 14 Magnetic/Anti-Tank Mine''' is a [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] explosive ordnance. |

| ==Overview== | | ==Background== |
| ===Design details===
| | The Type 14 Magnetic/Anti-Tank Mine is used as both a mine and a satchel-charge type of bomb, containing 6.8 kilograms of [[C-7 foaming explosive]]. The arming fuse can be set for five, ten, or fifteen seconds. The magnetic attachment device ensures that it will adhere to a vehicle that passes over it. It is used exclusively in ''[[Halo 2]]'', ''[[Halo 3]]'' and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' [[multiplayer]] matches, and is not featured in any [[campaign]]s or in any novels. |
| The Type-14 is an [[antimatter charge]] used by the UNSC as an anti-[[tank]] [[landmine]].{{Ref/Reuse|AoH}} The bomb weighs {{Convert|32|lb|kg|disp=flip|sp=us}}, and is magnetic in nature - allowing it to latch onto the armour of vehicles.{{Ref/Reuse|Decal}} It consists of a olive-brown circular casing with a rim around the middle. The top and bottom of the casing have a detachable panel, and the sides are covered in labels reading:{{Ref/Reuse|Decal}} | |

| A unique variant of the bomb forgoes the extruded ridge in favour of a cutaway around the middle, from which a red light is emitted.{{Ref/Reuse|H2A}}
| |
| | |
| The [[Covenant]] employ the {{Pattern|Riruku|void maker}}, an antimatter charge of similar size, for similar purposes.{{Ref/Mode|HR|Invasion}}
| |
| | |
| ==Gameplay==
| |
| It is used exclusively in [[Assault]]-type games from ''[[Halo 2]]'', ''[[Halo 3]]'' and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' [[multiplayer]] matches. In ''Halo: Reach'' Invasion gametypes, players playing as Covenant Sangheili utilize a {{Pattern|Riruku|void maker}} for similar purposes. | |
| | |
| In Assault games with standard settings, the bomb will have an unusually high melee strength, to compensate for the bomb carrier not being able to use their weapons. The bomb is usually a one-hit-kill from any angle.
| |
| | |
| ==Production notes==
| |
| The name for the bomb was first provided in an out-of-game source in ''[[The Art of Halo: Creating a Virtual World]]'', as the '''Type 14 magnetic anti-tank mine/antimatter charge''', corresponding with the decals found on the in-game model in ''[[Halo 2]]''. When the page was first made on Halopedia, the name was written as '''Type 14 Magnetic/Anti-Tank Mine''' - a naming convention not used in any known source material but seemingly based on the ''Art of Halo'' label. The later [[Halo Waypoint]] article on the [[HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark I ADS|Mark I ADS]] in ''[[Halo Legends]]'' seemingly lists its armaments as including the [[Type 18 Magnetic/Bayonet-style Claymore]] - seemingly-copying the naming convention established by Halopedia.
