Why are there 2 entries for the Mk 18 mine in the equipment description but no known mine when searched for on the internet?

Good question Mike. I don't know the answer but there's only one appearing in v26b. You must be on 28.
Using the editor I can see three differences, one (device numbers 1649) has a buld rate, a penetration value and a different load cost to the other. The one without is device numbers 127.
I'm assuming it's an error at the moment and only the #1649 should appear.
Also note that there are similar questions on nearly all other mines?

Thank you for the information, the internet is as always not consistently reliable.zebrazwo wrote: Sat Feb 21, 2026 3:00 am http://www.navweaps.com/Weapons/WAMUS_Mine_mk18.jpg

Fair enough, the other alternate mines are greyed out. There are a number of minor errors in this scenario so that seems likely.Chris21wen wrote: Sat Feb 21, 2026 7:26 am Good question Mike. I don't know the answer but there's only one appearing in v26b. You must be on 28.

I cannot find a ship that utilizes these mines currently. Since they are produced in 1941 it wont be a newer model. I wonder if the ship or ships that use these are simply not in scenario 1?

I get the sense that it is an unused device that was input into the database but never implemented in the game.
