Following
the successful testing of the MRP Modular System as water barriers in
ballistic conditions by the UK Ministry of Defence and the US Defense
Department it has been employed at a number of military installations.
For example, the Royal Navy is using them in torpedo loading operations.
The RAF has installed them in Kandahar, Afghanistan to separate and protect
armed under wing munitions on aircraft and likewise, the USAF for identical
use on their aircraft at Bagram Air Base. Demonstrations
using live donor and acceptor munitions have included Mk24 Torpedoes,
skyflash and sidewinder missiles, UK 1000lb bombs, US
Mk84 2000lb
bombs and AGM-65 Maverick Warheads. In ALL tests the MRP Water barriers
provided adequate protection , ensuring that the acceptor weapons did
not detonate and in most cases were hardly scratched. |
