A floating mine can also be put in the sea as a weapon against ships.

浮雷也可以被放置在海上作为对抗船只的武器。

This can detect floating mines through fog and clouds, and even at night.

这可以穿透雾和云，甚至在夜间探测漂浮的地雷。

The floating mines were then at the mercy of the wind, and  many floated back down towards the British ships.

漂浮的水雷随风而去，许多水雷向英国船只飘回。
