Design of a new type of Gas-Dynamic Disruptor used to Neutralize Improvised Explosive Devices

Abstract

The paper presents a type of recoilless disruptor developed according to the studies of two disruptors performance and shortcomings currently used DR2 and RICHMOND, respectively. In creating the new disruptor, there were kept some common elements of the two disruptors taken as models of operation (ex. dimensions from RICHMOND were used to design the new system of disruption).
