Project Yellowstone
Proven Solutions for Remote Environments
Project Yellowstone, developed in collaboration with the Humanitarian Mine Action community, offers a range of products designed to neutralise explosive threats in post-conflict areas. These solutions are highly effective and remarkably user-friendly, ensuring that they can be operated with ease and confidence even in the most challenging environments.
Draken, W-Etna and J-Etna are here.
Project Yellowstone Product Suite
Draken
Draken is an IEDD disruptor designed for use in areas where obtaining ammunition for existing disruptors is difficult or impossible. It uses sustainably filled cartridges and water.
W-Etna
A disruptor designed for heavy-cased IEDs, W-Etna uses a binary liquid explosive. This innovative explosive is carefully engineered for maximum safety and effectiveness, ensuring reliable results in challenging environments.
J-Etna
A low-order tool that can deflagrate the target using a binary liquid explosive and a magnesium cone. This combination allows for controlled and efficient detonation, minimising the risk of collateral damage.
Tried and Tested Technology
We’ve taken our experience of explosive-shaped charges and gone back to basics. W-Etna, J-Etna, and Draken will efficiently and reliably function regardless of the operating environment’s remoteness or difficulty.
Simple Operation – Minimising Training
When you need to operate Project Yellowstone products at scale, you can train operators quickly and easily. Our expertise has designed simple but effective products — high-impact, low-cost solutions.
Robust
Toughened containers, machined steel and separate components mean you can easily take and transport our products anywhere.
Reliable
Built on the same principles as our renowned Vulcan charge, you can bank on the reliability of W-Etna, J-Etna and Draken, counting on consistent results every time, no matter the circumstances.
Revolutionary
Using binary explosives or cartridges isn’t new, but combined with our shaped charge experience, it is. We’re disrupting the disruptor market with sustainable charges that provide consistent effects.
Further Innovations to Come
W-Etna, J-Etna and Draken are the first products of Project Yellowstone, with the initiative welcoming further collaboration from the HMA community to develop tools and provide solutions to current and ongoing issues.
