Improvised Explosive Device Containment Vessel

Containment vessels are used by forces such as National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and National Security Guard (NSG). These containment vessels are used for detonating improvised explosive devices (IED) and explosives inside them. The entire explosion energy is absorbed inside the containment vessels and hence they are safely deployed to detonate explosives in crowded public areas with no damage to personnel and property. The IED containment vessel designed, developed and tested by DRDO, cost effective, one time use alternative which can absorb the blast energy due to explosion of 4kg TNT explosive and 6 kg IED at a distance of 0.5m.
