Some embodiments of the invention provide a dart that contains an HE payload, two time-delay fuses, one providing a relatively longer delay and the other providing a relatively shorter delay and two triggering mechanisms for triggering the fuses. The first triggering mechanism, which triggers on contact with a mine lid, triggers the relatively shorter time-delay fuse. The second mechanism, which triggers on overburdening exposure to water, sand, or soil, triggers the relatively longer time-delay fuse.

What is claimed is: 1. A projectile comprising:a high-explosive payload;a first triggering device, wherein the first triggering device is triggered by contact with a mine;a first time-delay fuse that provides a relatively shorter time delay, wherein expiration of the relatively shorter time delay results in detonation of the high-explosive payload, and wherein the first time-delay fuse is initiated when the first triggering device is triggered, and;a second triggering device, wherein the second triggering device is triggered by overburdening exposure to water, sand, or soil; anda second time-delay fuse that provides a relatively longer time delay, wherein expiration of the relatively longer time delay results in detonation of the high-explosive payload, and wherein the second time-delay fuse is initiated when the second triggering device is triggered;wherein the first triggering device and the second triggering device are co-axial sleeves that are independently movable in an axial direction.
