E81 Remote Initiation (Work in Progress)
The E81 Remote Initiation System is a wireless initiation concept that is currently in development.
The system is comprised of a transmitter, receiver, and an E81, electro-mechanical, initiator.
Transmitter (1 X 2½ X 6” + Antenna) is reusable
Receiver (1 X 2 X 5” + Antenna) can be reusable(if placed in a safe location)
E81 Initiator (¾ X 1 X 4”) one shot device(a reusable trainer variant is available)

ACE™ Advanced Cutting Explosive
Ensign-Bickford Aerospace & Defense
CE™ is an easy-to-use explosive cutting system with a flexible shaped charge liner and optimized standoff. The improved ACETM is the highest level of Advanced Cutting Explosive offered by Ensign-Bickford Aerospace & Defense Company.
The relative shock insensitivity of the explosive minimizes accidental or inadvertent detonation. The design meets MIL-PRF-46676 and OES-DTL-0006 standards for use by United States Military and International Forces.
KEY FEATURES:
Optimized explosive geometry
Advanced liner geometry and composition
Optimized built-in foam stand-off
Improved adhesive system
Superior penetration and severance performance
Increased multi-axis flexibility
Low fragmentation hazard

MPLC® Tactical Line Charge
Ensign-Bickford Aerospace & Defense
The MPLC® Tactical Line Charge, provides a precise, portable mine clearing weapon system at the small tactical unit level providing the ability to conduct clearing operations in urban and complex mined or trip-wired environments. Mobility and survivability are increased due to immediate precision fire from covered or concealed positions.
Mine Eraser
Ensign-Bickford Aerospace & Defense
The Mine Eraser, an energetic minefield breaching line (EMBL), is a length of energetic line charge containing plastic bonded explosive (PBX) blocks connected by detonating cord, ensuring reliable detonation. Quick-connect multiple lines together to create longer lengths for covering larger areas. Its durable design enables deployment by unmanned vehicles, allowing detonation at a safe distance.
Description
The E81 Initiator is an electrically initiated, ESD safe, variant of the M81 Initiator designed to fire In-Line-Initiators (ILI’s) at a distance, without the need for long lengths of shock tube. When attached to the receiver and armed (safety pin removed) it will actuate when provided a firing pulse from the receiver. The technology that lives within the E81 Initiator is a high-reliability, aerospace pedigree mechanism designed to be produced at a minimal cost target.
arming commands to the initiator. They are paired by direct contact and share an encryption key, creating a cyber-hardened data-link. The information shared between the receiver and transmitter provides feedback to the user as to the status of the charge. This configuration has been tested at distances beyond 1.5km.
