Bombs are not going BOOM!

1,000 lbs Type A mark 1 aircraft laid magnetic mine ( mk 13 Mod 0) For months now this bomb has been broken ; going straight through tanks and bases causing no damage and much lameness the worst event i chased a dude back to his base in air rb and the bombs land right next to dude and just fall through ground a disappear .The PBM-5A is on the battle pass this season with 8 of these bombs so pls gajin fix.

I don’t think this is an accident

the problem is that they are inconsistent. sometimes i can destroy bases and tanks, and sometimes i cant. and the behavior of them acting as regular bombs has been in the game for years

i thought same thing took them to naval and they fall through boat and just float in water

skill issue

It’s a naval mine. The fuse does not activate on contact with ground/tanks. It sets the fuse in the water.

It’s a known bug (acknowledged - 4 months ago):

Try reading.

They nerfed the whole 1K lb. bomb class. Mines or GP bombs all seem to have very limited radius of effect compared to how the were before the previous update.
Setting them for zero or assault delay seems to help a little. They don’t have enough time to sink n’ bob. But they are still inconsistent.
