Patent ID: 8800448

Claim:
A stand-off breaching device for breaching a target, the stand-off breaching device comprising: a nose at a front end of the stand-off breaching device that is a rounded cone shape, wherein the nose is configured to compress and then rebound to its original shape exerting force against a target and the stand-off breaching device to cause the stand-off breaching device to rebound from the target after the nose impacts the target; and a body connected to the nose and extending to a back end of the stand-off breaching device, wherein the body includes: a main explosive fill, wherein the main explosive fill is detonated and explodes to provide an explosive breaching force; and a delay detonator that detonates the main explosive fill and that is triggered when the nose impacts a target, wherein the delay detonator is configured to delay detonation of the main explosive fill until the stand-off breaching device has rebounded to a determined stand-off distance chosen to cause effective breaching of the target; wherein the nose and body, and components of each, are fabricated from material that will be consumed by the explosion of the main explosive fill, minimizing any resultant fragments.
