Explosive charges
Explosive charges are primarily used as a tool for demolition or destruction of selected targets. They may also be encountered as a deliberate method for destroying key assets during ambushes or defensive manoeuvres. Explosive charges vary in size, ranging from small charges used to break locks or door hinges to large quantities of explosives rigged to a single detonator for the destruction of structures or equipment.
Explosive charges typically lack secondary elements such as fragmentation and rely mainly on the placement and quantity of explosive used to achieve the desired effect. They are usually activated by a remote detonator, such as a clacker or radio signal, or by a timed detonator.
