The MATS/2.6 is a scatterable Italian circular plastic cased minimum metal blast resistant anti-tank blast mine. It is very similar to the MATS/2, except that it uses a smooth pressure plate rather than a griddle pressure plate. It uses a pneumatic fuse which is resistant to shock and blast similar to the fuze fitted to the TS-50. The mines plastic case is water proof, and the mine can be scattered from a helicopter.

The mine is no longer in production.
