Vulkan Maxi Recoilless De-Armer Disrupter

The Vulkan Disrupter system is a 4th generation maxi modular, variable projectile mass, recoilless equipment which can be configured as:
  • Close Up De Armer using plain slug or chisel slug against UXB fuses.
  • Stand Off De Armer using spin stabilised plain slug at ranges up to 30m (100ft) against UXB fuses.
  • Close Up De Armer using blade projectile typically against pipe bombs and certain other IEDs.
  • Close Up Disrupter using either 200ml or 300ml of water in C-IED applications.
  • Stand Off Disrupter using 200g spin stabilised frangible projectiles at ranges of up to 30m (100ft) and beyond in C-IED applications and in breaching / entry SWAT operations etc.

Main Features

  • 40mm rifled barrel for stand-off applications.
  • Gas regulator which varies gas volume to the compensator permitting the system tobe completely recoilless for projectiles masses of between 200 and 300g.
  • Powerful green lasers with enhanced safety features such as programmable time out.
  • Lasers feature contra rotating prisms which make zeroing quick and easy.
  • For safety Laser Sights feature automatic time-out and cannot be used independent of the turret and stand.
  • Constructed in either tempered stainless steel or tempered titanium in situations where a very lightweight system, is desirable.
  • The canon in Titanium is approximately half the weight of the stainless steel version.

40mm Rifled Barrel which enhances the accuracy of long stand-off frangible and solid projectiles. This at the same time enables the projectiles to be of a simpler, cheaper construction and gives more effective target disruption.

Gas Regulator, allows the volume of gas to the compensator to be varied across 3 settings enabling the system to be completely recoilless with a range of projectile types with masses from 200 to 300g.

Anti-Rotation Peg, prevents the disrupter from rotating when using rifled barrel and ensures that disrupter is always indexed in the same position to enhance accuracy.

Common Breech Plug with two electrical adaptors allowing the use of leaded electric cartridges with the basic plug, leadless electric cartridges and percussion initiated cartridges. The percussion system features an electrically powered solenoid to strike the firing pin. This means that the Vulkan can be used with some currently available in service Cartridges and the new Countermeasure Systems Leadless Electric and Percussion Cartridges. Percussion Cartridges eliminate any danger from RF induction through long firing cables.
