2
An explosive-loaded tube used to clear a path
through a minefield or other obstacles
3
bangalore torpedo
4
to break up or scatter in many directions
disperse disappear
5
dissipate
6
dealing with all relevant details including
everything
7
comprehensive
8
warhead of a missile cargo on an airplane
9
payload
10
to cover something to prevent air from getting
to it
11
smother
12
an explosive charge which concentrates its force
in one direction
13
shaped charge
14
This indicates how easy it is to detonate an
explosive.
15
Sensitivity
16

initiate explosives
19

action to blast pits in the ground
21
cratering charge
22
a rear-loaded fuze activated by impact
23
base detonating fuze
24
preparing a charge for explosion
25
priming
26

electrical circuit to form a parallel circuit
27
shunt
28
This causes an explosive to resist detonation
under normal storage conditions.
29
Stability
30
A fuze located in the nose designed to actuate on
impact.
31
Point detonating fuze
32
a short twist, bend, loop, or curl in a rope or a
wire
33
kink
34
a fuze which has the target sensing element in
the nose of the projectile
35
point initiating fuze
36
final disposition of a UXO by demolition,
burning, dumping, etc.
37
DP
38
the procedure for making a UXO safe by separating
the essential components of the ordnance

protective cover
45
enamel
46
a device that holds things together
47
clip
48
a sticky substance like glue
49
adhesive
50
an air space or a hole in an explosive charge
51
cavity
52
a component of the explosive train that transmits
the detonation from detonator to a booster
charge. It is a small column of HE.
53

56
In general, any explosive charge that blasts,
shatters, or penetrates
57
demolition charge
58
a plastic explosive in a package of four sheets
used for cutting or breaching steel
59
sheet explosive
60
when something is enough or is sufficient
61
suffice
62
to put weight above an explosive charge to
concentrate the force downward packing dirt,
mud, or sand around the top of the explosive
63
tamping
64
to connect two wires or cords together either to
extend the length or to branch the directions
65

84
a rough substance that creates friction like
sandpaper
85

igniter
93
barrel
94
to pull out or remove
95

96
an easily ignitable explosive charge used in
electric primers and detonators. It transfers
the explosion to a charge which is less sensitive
and more brisant.
97
