Neutralization and Breaching Technology

Abstract

This effort addresses the challenges of selectively neutralizing individual explosive hazards at standoff ranges as well as the challenges of scaling up such capabilities to neutralize multiple explosive hazards for effective complex obstacle breaches. This effort focuses on validation of techniques to confirm the location of buried threats and on the design and development of technology components to defeat the confirmed target. The result is matured components to facilitate follow-on efforts to develop an integrated explosive hazard neutralization and breaching capability. Examples of candidate technologies for neutralization include high energy devices (lasers and radio frequency) and explosives.
