Hi,

Seems that these kind of mines were used by the German two seaters, and probably especially by the Schusta's/Schlasta's as an anti-tank mine that was thrown to the tanks from the planes. I suspect use started late 1917 early 1918.
I was wondering if anyone has more information on these and if they had anything to do with the wooden box mines used by the Germans in the same period. And where does the curious name come from (Priesterminen = Priestmines ?)

Thanks and best from Johan
