 I think we need these.
 
 Antipersonnel and antivehicle mines? Take up your grenade slot? can be stuck to any nearby surface but take a second or two to deploy? Have IFF so they only go off when enemies roll over them? Go boom and kill stuff?
 
 I think the answer is "Yes please".

 While it seems like a nice idea, this looks more like a lazy version of the Remote Explosive.
 
 Just slap a few of these at the objective terminals and you won't even have to push a button to blow people up.

 I want my mines. Even if they were a lazy variant of the RE.
 
 Because in the future you don't need to deploy mines on a battlefield, just give the pioneers some RE's and tell them to keep an eye on the field they are denying from the enemies. Makes sense.

 well, one of the canonical antipersonnel mines in the setting is basically a high speed motor with three or four strands of high-tensile monofilament wire with weights on the end that flails around and slices stuff to bits. But yeah, if we want them to not be a lazy man's RE, maybe remove the IFF so that they're proximity triggered regardless of whether the guy they're killing is friendly? That way just slapping them down is a hazard for your own team too, without good teamwork.
 
 Maybe pressing your grenade button once all of your mines are deployed should disarm them too, so you can mine a road against enemy vehicles, but then make it safe again when your own vehicles want to go past.

 RE (remote explosives) have been used like grenades. Having a set time like you shuggested with vehicle mines should be implemented. and/or lower the amount of RE they can carry. 5 might be too much.
