Unmanned Vehicles

The H-POMBS (Heavy Portable Obstacle Minefield Breaching System) itself is a line-charge system originally conceived as a man-portable solution carried in rucksacks by combat engineers. In its baseline form, the system consists of a detonating cord with distributed explosive charges, packed into two backpacks and deployed across the target area by a rocket. Once in place and detonated, it clears a narrow but continuous lane through mines, booby traps and other explosive obstacles.
