Approved Tech Breshig War Forge Consolidated TWDP-01 Thermal Well Detonation Pack

[Shuklaar Kyrdol]

PRODUCTION INFORMATION​

• Manufacturer: Breshig War Forge Consolidated.
• Affiliation: Breshig War Forge Consolidated and Strill Securities.
• Material:Duraplast frame, combat de-ionizer, Baradium, Ytterbium, electronics and detonation pack components.

SPECIAL FEATURES​

• Stackable: Multiple charges can be easily combined for an increased yield via easy to use connectors that allow the charges to be placed on top of each other.
• Variable Detonation Method(s):
  • Timed: The charge has as timer that can be set from anywhere from half a second to it's battery pack's maximum lifetime of a galactic standard week. The connection of more powerful external charge packs will allow the timer to be set for longer periods of time.
  • Command: The charge is primarily designed to be detonated over comms, to facilitate this it has a 'Manda' Battlenet-compatible encrypted frequency hopping comm/ptp link or comm laser. This means the charge can be detonated via paired comms system via standard comms or ptp link or over a connected 'Manda' net. In all cases, additional authorized comm units may be synced and may be used to detonate the charge provided they have the detonation code. The detonation code is either set manually or generated by the first paired comm unit.
• Tamper-prevention:
  • Removal Detection: If removed from the object it is adhered to without disarming, the charge will detonate.
  • Laser Gyroscope: If the charge is moved or lifted once armed, it will detonate.
  • Mechu-deru/Slicing/Re-wiring: Sensors and monitoring routines check for attempts to alter the charge's functioning. If attempts are made to alter the charge's programming or circuitry once armed, it will detonate.
  • Power Loss: If for any reason the charge loses power, it will detonate with a backup chemical fuze.
• Variable Attachment Mthod(s)
  • Magnatomic Gription Panel: The detpack features magnatomic gription panels that allow it to be adhered to objects. By depressing a button on the charge the panel will disengage allowing it to be repositioned. A separate button allows the user to lock the panel with a code entered via the pack's keypad or transmitted via comms, preventing it from being disengaged easily without said code.
  • Adhesive: If for whatever reason the gription panel can't be used, a frost and moisture-proof adhesive can be used by peeling off the backing.
  • Reversed Micro-repulsor: The charge features a micro-repulsor that can be reversed to adhere it primarily in the case of quick-use scenarios as its use does decrease battery-life of the charge to three days.
• Multi-Environment: These charges can be used underwater or even in the vacuum of space.

STRENGTHS​

• Thermal Well: The thermal reaction produced by thermal wells has the capability to melt through five meters of permacrete in a matter of seconds.
• Difficult to Disarm: The charge's numerous tamper-prevention methods make it difficult to disarm for those without the disarm code.
• Versatile: The charge's variable geometry, multiple attachment and detonation methods combined with it's ability to be used in multiple environments makes it extremely versatile.

WEAKNESSES​

• EMP/Ion: EMP/Ion weapons could detonate the charge earlier than when intended should they burn out it's power supply.
• Battery Life: Use of the micro-repulsor to adhere the charge lowers it's battery life from a week to three days.

DESCRIPTION​

"Much better, now I don't have to put down AP mines to dissuade disarming attempts."
"But you're still going to?"
"You know me too well, alor"
- Anila Kyrr and Saram Kote, commandos of Strill Securities Davaab squad.​

​

The TWD-01 was developed to cater to the needs of Strill Securities special forces who wanted a thermal well that didn't require the deployment of mines or other measures to dissuade disarming attempts. That said, the charge is still produced in large numbers, with surplus being sold on the market by the company, given the abundance of repeat customers who have expressed interest.​

​

Like the company's MDP-01 Multi-Geometry Detonation Pack, it integrates a number of tamper-prevention features that make it extremely difficult to disarm for hostiles once armed. The charge also features some manner of defense against the ostensibly rare force technique Mechu Deru and protection against re-wiring and slicing. That said, the charge's tamper-prevention would also unfortunately prematurely detonate it if it's power supply were to be disabled. This is problematic for a number of reasons.​

​

While it doesn't feature the MDP-01's multi-geometry that allows it to fold into a smaller form factor, it does feature multiple attachment and detonation methods. One of these attachment methods, however, the reversed micro-repulsor does reduce the pack's battery life from a week to 3 galactic standard days. Strrill's commandos, are more than happy with the charge despite the few flaws, and as are the company's customers guaranteeing a long production run for the foreseeable future.​
