Answer:
The Scorpion 700711 bomb blanket measures approximately 150 cm × 200 cm, accompanied by a containment ring with a height of 17 inches. The assembly delivers ballistic fragmentation suppression certified to a V50 rating of 665 m/s for a 17 grain steel fragment.
The Scorpion 700711 Bomb Blanket & Safety Circle is engineered to suppress fragmentation and mitigate blast damage during explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) and improvised explosive device (IED) containment protocols. Key physical and ballistic specifications include:
- Blanket Dimensions: Approximately 150 cm × 200 cm.
- Safety Circle Height: 17 inches (approx. 43 cm).
- Ballistic Protection Standard: V50 rating of 665 m/s using a standard 17 grain steel fragment.
When deployed, the containment circle rests on its edge around the threat to channel blast overpressure upward into the sky, while the draped 150 cm × 200 cm ballistic blanket absorbs and traps high-velocity fragments generated by the explosive event.
