ABL1000 Recoilless Disruptor and De-Armer

Currently in service with the UK MoD and worldwide security agencies, the ABL1000 is a dual role Recoilless Disruptor and De-Armer system developed to combat the threat posed by complex and well protected Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and Unexploded Ordnances (UXOs).

Product Capabilities

• Manual multi-shot device capable of thousands of firings without affecting performance
• Disruption barrel enables projection of high pressure water slug into the suspect device, rapidly disrupting the firing circuit and avoiding detonation
