Explosive Ordnance Disposal Robot

Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Robots are specialized robots used for the safe handling and disposal of explosive devices. They fall under the supply class Surface Use Explosive Ordnance Disposal Tools and Equipment, which is part of the supply group Ammunition and Explosives.

EOD Robots are designed to perform a variety of tasks related to explosive ordnance disposal, including reconnaissance, inspection, and disposal of explosive devices. These robots are remotely operated by trained EOD technicians, allowing them to safely handle dangerous situations from a distance.

Some common features of EOD Robots include:

1. Remote Control: EOD Robots are operated remotely, allowing the operator to control the robot's movements and functions from a safe distance.

2. Manipulator Arm: These robots are equipped with a manipulator arm that can be used to handle and manipulate explosive devices. The arm is often equipped with various tools and attachments to assist in the disposal process.

3. Cameras and Sensors: EOD Robots are equipped with cameras and sensors to provide the operator with a clear view of the surroundings and the explosive device. This helps in assessing the situation and planning the disposal process.

4. Mobility: EOD Robots are designed to be highly mobile, allowing them to navigate various terrains and environments. They are often equipped with tracks or wheels for movement.

5. Communication Systems: EOD Robots have communication systems that allow the operator to communicate with other team members and receive instructions or guidance during the disposal process.

These robots play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of EOD technicians and minimizing the risk of injury or damage during explosive ordnance disposal operations. They are an essential tool in the field of ammunition and explosives supply.
