How to get/drop mines on a P-3C

Hi all - I'm on a mission where I have to lay mines.
However they don't seem to be available in the loadout options before I start the mission and when I'm on the mission I can't find anything relating to mines.

Help! How to I get them please?

On the wings, the you just used the drop downs same as you would to arm Mavs or SLAM-ERs. Mines can be either 1000lb or 2000lb.

For the bomb bay, there are options for several configurations between mines and torpedoes. Take the one with all mines and then use the drop downs for those too.

Ah thanks! It doesn't say "mine" on there, I thought they were just 1,000 or 2,000 lbs bombs!
Will give that a go.
