Experimental Shooting with Thor-1 Disruptor: New Type of Gas Device used to Neutralize improvised Explosive Devices

Abstract

The paper presents experiments conducted with disruptor THOR-1, a new type of gas-dynamic device used to neutralize improvised explosive devices. Disruptor THOR-1 [1] was designed and practically built as a gas-dynamic device that propels jets using colloidal particulate blast.
