Product Presentation
The Ground Bomb Killer (GBK) is an innovative anti-explosive protection solution designed to neutralize the destructive effects of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and suspicious objects until specialized teams arrive. Developed and patented by SEMAWORLD, this device is used on all continents by civil and military security forces, as well as specialized services.
Technical Description
- Primary Objective: Contain an explosion by providing horizontal protection against fragmentation and blast effects of an IED, thereby reducing damage to people and property.
- Operation: Thanks to its flexible design, the GBK channels the explosive force upward, limiting lateral projections and ensuring safety around the blast point.
- Installation: Very quick and does not require specialized training — the operator simply places the GBK around the suspicious object.
- Materials & Standards: The GBK is designed to provide different levels of fragment protection according to STANAG 2920 V50 (international fragment resistance ballistic test).
- Variants: Available in multiple sizes and capacities, suitable for objects ranging from small luggage to larger trolleys, with resistance levels adjusted according to needs.
Advantages & Benefits
X-ray Inspection Capability: The GBK allows inspection of the suspicious object via X-ray without moving it. Thanks to the GBK’s design and the specific materials used, operators can:
- perform radiographic (X-ray) inspection directly through the GBK,
- safely analyze the contents of the suspicious object,
- deploy K9 units to detect any present threats,
- avoid any dangerous handling or movement before bomb disposal teams intervene.
This feature greatly enhances the safety of field teams, reduces decision-making time, and optimizes the management of explosive threats in sensitive environments.
- Reduction of Human and Material Damage: By channeling energy and limiting fragments, the GBK protects people and the environment.
- Fast and Simple Action: Enables securing an area in an emergency before specialized services arrive.
- Versatile: Adaptable to different types of threats and suspicious objects.
- Preventive or Reactive Use: Suitable for high-traffic areas where a suspicious package could pose a danger: airports, train stations, shopping centers, public buildings, stadiums, hotels, museums, amusement parks, etc.
Typical Applications
The Ground Bomb Killer is designed for use in the following environments:
- Public transportation (airports, train stations, subways, buses)
- Government buildings & institutions
- Shopping centers & heavily frequented public spaces
- Sporting or cultural events
- Sensitive sites requiring rapid anti-explosive protection
