A new type of Countermeasure?

[MB52]

So I was wondering what the possibility of having a new type of CM, that when dropped can disrupt the cruise of a ship pursuing you. (or at least have a chance to do so)

Basically instead of stopping incoming CDs it would act as a way to slow the enemy down.

Something like a mine, that explodes at a certain range, but could be dropped while cruising. This could make chases easier, as the person chasing now has to avoid these CMs. (of course, the CMs should have low chance of hitting.. etc..)
