Enter the 'Fountain-ZM' – a cupola made of multi-layered Kevlar which weighs about 55 kilograms. By covering the explosive device, 'Fountain' helps contain the blast wave and shrapnel and drastically reduces the damage caused by the explosion.
'Injection' is a small hand grenade useful for non-lethal takedowns. After exploding, it disperses a powder-like irritating agent which causes those affected by it to choke. An operative of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) special operations unit told the TV channel Zvezda that the grenade also has a flashbang version, which may cause a partial loss of sight. 'Typhoon' was originally designed to neutralize improvised explosive devices. Essentially a sophisticated explosive charge attached to an extension tube, the device can be used to breach any kind of door or window. 'Typhoon' is activated via a remote controlled detonator, allowing for a coordinated assault, and the yield of the explosive charge can be altered depending on what kind of obstacle needs to be breached. |
