====== SALVAGE SPACE: EXPLOSIVE WEAPONS ======

**charge, satchel**: large explosive packages attached to structures to destroy them

**charge, thermal**: extermely high temperature reactions which burn through materials

**detonator, impact**: sets off an explosive charge when subjected to a short shock

**detonator, pressure**: sets off an explosive charge when pressure exceeds a set value

**detonator, proximity**: sets off an explosive charge when a sensor detects a set condition within range

**detonator, remote**: sets off an explosive charged when signaled from a distance

**detonator, timed**: sets off an explosive charge after a set period of time elapses

**explosives, improvised**: ad-hoc explosive devices crafted from readily-available common materials repurposed to cause damage

**explosives, incendiary gel**: liquid or near-liquid explosives designed to cling to a surface as they burn

**explosives, polymer**: explosives polymerized for stability and flexible choice of use in the field

**explosives, shaped-charge**: explosive charges or blocks configured to detonate in a specific pattern designed to force the direction of the explosive waves into a single target point to increase destructive yield

**grenade, concussion**: hand-thrown explosive to create casualties by lethal concussive shock waves while reducing impact to friendly forces

**grenade, flash**: hand-thrown explosive to create a bright flash and loud sound for distraction or disorientation

**grenade, fragmentation**: hand-thrown explosive which disintegrates into a high volume of shrapnel

**grenade, gas**: hand-thrown explosive which releases a gas, causing different effects depending on the gas used

**grenade, restraint**: hand-thrown explosive which hardens into a restraint gel on impact

**grenade, rocket-propelled**: larger grenade mounted to a rocket, launchd by rifle or similar hand-held weapon for longer-range delivery and anti-vehicle uses

**grenade, smoke**: a hand-thrown explosive which generates a large volume of smoke for concealment

**mine, buried**: explosives buried to be triggered by personnel or vehicles moving over them

**mine, directional**: explosives hidden to detonate and direct shrapnel into a specific area

**mortars**: ashell launcher to deliver explosives behind or over obstacles

**rockets, smoke**: a small rocket launched across a battlefield which uses explosive reactions to generate large volumes of smoke for concealment
