Ammunition Oven

A mobile ammunition oven to render harmelss live and expended ammunition, leaving most of the lead and brass recoverable for recycling

By destroying ammunition in situ, insurgent active shooters are denied access to caches of small arms ammunition. The destroyed ammunition caches cannot be used as IED components and EOD operators can focus on immediate IED threats rather than on the logistics of transporting and disposal of captured ammunition.

Available as both a trailer mounted or containerised system, this oven was designed in collaboration with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in 2001 and is a fully COTS production product in service.

Key features:

Disposes of ammunition up to 50 calibre on site, reducing the risk of transporting live ammunition. Processes 27kg (60lbs) per hour.

97% of the recyclable material can be recovered after each burn cycle. Recovered material can be reused for multiple applications
Easy to use in the field with minimal training.
Uses JP8 fuel supply or four 12.5kg propane gas bottles per 10 burn cycles
