A digitally controlled hand-tossable explosive delivery receptacle comprises a ruggedized reusable compartment enclosing a digital circuit and a disposable cartridge holding one or more explosive chemical agents and a primer. The disposable cartridge is configured to be mounted to the ruggedized reusable cartridge, and a high-strength bulkhead incorporated into the reusable or disposable compartment that separates the digital circuit from the chemical agents. The reusable compartment is sufficiently ruggedized to withstand the ignition of the primer and the detonation of the chemical agents to be reused with one or more additional disposable cartridges. In one implementation, the delivery receptacle uses a commercial airbag initiator as the primer, which is arranged in relation to the one or more chemical agents so that when the initiator is activated, it generates a pressure wave that expels the one or more chemical agents from the grenade.

A hand grenade for launching BB bullets includes two half shells each including a spiral bullet storage and one half shell further including a discharge opening; a hollow, cylindrical base including a bottom recess, an air passage communicating with one bullet storage, and a valve at an end of the air passage; a steel ball on the recess to block the valve; a pressing assembly including a disc urging against the steel ball, a hollow cylinder extending upward from the disc, a magnet in the hollow cylinder, and a rod partially in the hollow cylinder to engage with the magnet; a hollow, cylindrical member threadedly secured to the cylindrical base; a cup-shaped cap threadedly secured to the cylindrical member and including two opposite projections on an inner surface and a bottom through hole with the rod passing through; and a switch including two opposite protrusions under the projections respectively.

The present invention provides for a network connected training projectile that provides user feedback and is used to determine a trainee's proximity to an appropriately sized explosive blast zone. The invention solves the unmet need for close combat indirect fire (mortars and grenade launchers), or hand grenades which can be safely used in live training exercises. The invention further solves that such use is interactive with the training environment providing the ability to calculate the extent personnel participating in a training exercise would be affected by the training grenade in a real-life scenario. The invention further determines mortality of participants who would have been affected by the training grenade.

A diversionary device trigger mechanism is provided that can be repeatedly used, and. which allows a primer or blank to be discharged in two different ways. The device includes a main body with a number of other components secured to the main body about an upper chamber and a lower chamber. A firing pin, a ball bearing, an anvil, a top retaining cap, and a plunger are secured about the upper chamber. A blank carrier, a primer or blank, and a carrier receiver are secured about the lower chamber. In the first way, the ball bearing can be displaced relative to the main body, such as by throwing the device towards a surface. In the second way, the plunger can be pushed down relative to the main body. If either of these occur, the firing pin to be moved downwardly to pierce and set off the primer or blank.

The invention relates to a detonator, in particular for a detonation of pyrotechnics. The invention additionally relates to a munition having said detonator. The aim of the invention is to achieve a high degree of variability when using practice munitions in particular and other non-lethal munitions. This is achieved in that the detonator consists at least of a detonation transmitter, wherein the detonation transmitter is coated with a thin layer of an explosive. The detonation transmitter can be a shock tube without an explosive capsule.

An example simulated weapon includes a delayed trigger and a pellet ejector. The delayed trigger includes a chamber and a piston slidable between armed and triggering positions. A spring biases the piston towards the triggering position. A locking member releasably locks the piston in the armed position. Release of the piston by the locking member causes the spring to move the piston from the armed position to the triggering position. The pellet ejector is coupled to the delay trigger to be triggered by the delay trigger in the triggering position. The pellet ejector includes a pressure chamber to receive a pressurized fluid and a pellet chamber to receive pellets. A valve is disposed between the pressure chamber and the pellet chamber communicates pressure from the pressure chamber to the pellet chamber. A barrel that extends through the pressure chamber is connected to the pellet chamber to eject the pellets.

An automatic association system for automating an association of a plurality of devices in a battlefield simulation system. A network polling mode of each of the plurality of devices is initiated. At least one other of the plurality of devices is detected. A movement of the device and the at least one other of the plurality of devices is correlated. A device profile associated with the device is correlated with a movement over time profile of a platform. The device and the at least one other of the plurality of devices are determined to be on the platform based on the movement and the correlation of the device profile with the movement over time profile. The device is authenticated based on the determination and a personal area network between the device and the at least one other of the plurality of devices is established based on the authentication.
