*NATO STOCK NUMBER: 1385-99-725-4389*

The HOTROD is designed for the disruption of larger or better protected Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs). It has been in service with the UK MOD for over 25 years which is a testament to its reliability and effectiveness at disrupting a suspect device without causing the device to detonate.

The HOTROD may be deployed using an optional lightweight stand or by mounting to a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). Preparation of the disruptor is straightforward and quick to achieve and may be carried out remotely from the target to enhance operator safety. The HOTROD is constructed from non corroding stainless steel parts. Prior to release each unit is subjected to an over pressure proof test and flaw detection.
