The TR/9 takes a circular form, with six fins protruding off the side. The centre of the disc has another four fins that, when the mine is activated, rotate upward. The mine's activation also sees it light up and emit a high-pitched beeping noise. The mine can use trip wires or [[laser]] beams to trigger the detonator, when something large enough gets within range.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc09}}

==Operational history==
The TR/9 trip mine was predominantly employed by [[Covenant]] loyalist [[Jiralhanae]] forces during the later stages of the [[Human-Covenant War]]. Jiralhanae equipped with these mines were deployed during the [[Battle for Earth]] and [[Battle of Installation 00]] in late [[2552]].{{Ref/Game|H3}} In the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|post-war]] era, [[Jiralhanae Jumper]]s allied with [[Merg Vol's Covenant]] and the [[Banished]] have been known to employ trip mines.
The TR/9 trip mine was originally developed for UNSC forces, though as with many pieces of equipment, was often stolen and deployed by [[Covenant]] loyalist [[Jiralhanae]] forces during the later stages of the [[Human-Covenant War]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} Jiralhanae equipped with these mines were deployed during the [[Battle for Earth]] and [[Battle of Installation 00]] in late [[2552]].{{Ref/Game|H3|Trip Mine in-game equipment}} In the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|post-war]] era, [[Jiralhanae Jumper]]s allied with [[Merg Vol's Covenant]] also employed the TR/9 trip mines.{{Ref/Level|HSA|Mission 16: Escape from the Southern Fields}}
