An anti-personnel mine that is flexible for manipulation in the field to accommodate missions by changing the shape of the C-4. The mine includes M112 seated in and adhered to a flexible housing having a rear involute wall. The involute wall includes a set of projecting folded pair of inclined walls that are about equidistant between a pair of inclined end walls. The inclined walls partitions most, but not all of the thickness of the M112 into segments that are tapered and accommodate the inclined walls. A metal spine, which may be shaped, is adhered to the front surface of the M112. Fragmentation elements and a bottom side of an elastic membrane are adhered to the spine and the front surface of the M112.
