Abstract: Embodiments pertain to a protective packaging assembly configured to be placed within a container and for receiving a plurality of explosive devices, the protecting packaging assembly comprising: a protective holder unit comprising: a plurality of receiving spaces which are arranged at different heights relative to each other with respect to a reference plane. The plurality of receiving spaces may have a mating profile that matches a profile portion of at least one of the plurality of the explosive devices to be placed in the plurality of receiving spaces.

Abstract: An auxiliary safety mechanism for a grenade to prevent detonation from shockwaves, heat, fragments, etc., the grenade including a fuse housing containing a delay detonator and explosive train. In at least one embodiment, the fuse housing includes a reversible slider element interposed between the delay detonator and the rest of the explosive train to form a barrier therebetween when the grenade is in an unarmed condition, and when the slider element is withdrawn the barrier between the delay detonator and explosive train is removed leaving the grenade in an armed condition. In another embodiment, a further safety mechanism involves connecting the two sections of the housing with a weak connection that ruptures prior to the explosive contained therein reaching the critical explosive temperature/pressure.

Abstract: A method of converting a cluster bomb having an expelling charge and submunitions into a unitary bomb, the method comprising: preparing the cluster bomb for the insertion of a shock wave destructive charge including removing the expelling charge; and inserting the shock wave destructive charge into the cluster bomb such that the destructive charge operatively contacts at least one submunition.
