Munition.  It's not a mine.  Mines have negative political 
connotations, so it's not one.	:)  Besides, the doctrine for WAMs is 
(as near as we can tell from the simulations) somewhat different than 
for conventional mines.  The Hornet WAM is actually being fielded into 
the 82nd Airborne's 307th EN (ABN) BN this year.
