Template:Short description The XM-54 was an experimental United States incendiary landmine tested during the Vietnam War. It was a large bounding mine that could either be command detonated or trip wire activated. It contained 15.3 lbs (6.9 kg) of plasticized white phosphorus.[1] Approximately 200 were shipped to Vietnam in August 1968, and some were used operationally.[2]
