The Needle Plus disruptor is an upgraded version of ABP’s world renowned Needle, designed as a precision disruptor for use on smaller improvised explosive devices (IEDs). ABP have developed a “leadless” cartridge and breach system which allows standard firing cable to be connected in a manner common to ABP’s other disruptors such as Pigstick and Hotrod. Needle Plus retains the service proven performance of the standard Needle; being suited to render safe procedures against small IEDs such as those contained in letters or small parcels or for precision disruption where a precise target area is known. The Needle Plus disruptor is a multi-shot device capable of many firings and requires minimum maintenance. Training may be carried out using the equipment without detriment to its service performance. Needle Plus may be deployed using the anti-roll clamp (supplied), the tripod stand (supplied) or by mounting to our Telescopic Disruptor Stand or a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) such as ABP’s Guardian. Preparation of the disruptor is straightforward and quick to achieve and can also be carried out remotely from the target to enhance operator safety. Needle Plus is constructed from non corroding stainless steel parts. Prior to release, each equipment is subjected to an over pressure test and flaw detection. NSN: 1385-99-485-3385
