Are lunge mines better than TNT?

I find that lunge mines are less possible to one-shot a tank (or did I just use them incorrectly?), but they are easier and faster to use.
I’ve played as Germany for long, and I find TNTs rather good. Anyone willing to share some experience about lunge mines?

So, all of my Japanese Soldiers have the Lunge over TNT. I do this to beat the glitch for tankers not being able to use their wrench by pressing “T” next to the tank to repair as I have no time for the “workaround” because DF messed up the coding somehow during an update. Anyway, they are a great surprise for US tankers, but they have a glaring issue that I’ve run into.

This might not be the defacto answer you’re looking for but in my experience the lunge mine like many things in this game is busted. I can use it on against the same tank, hitting the same armor panel at two different times of a match and get three different results.

  1. I either get a kill flat-out and die/live but downed/or not, just a flesh wound and walk away.
  2. Deal damage but no kill and die myself/live but downed only to be shot but the tankers jumping out to repair/ or flesh wound and concussed.
    or
  3. I get shot as the mine makes contact with the vehicle and nothing happens cause the game says everything stop for you once you lose control of your character.

I do find it more accurate than trying to limp wrist TNT onto a tank though so there’s that. If the animation for using TNT was better, then I would give the “winner” to TNT but as they both have there down falls being you get shot and nothing happens its really up to personal usage.
