Route Proving and Clearance Multi-Tool

The RP&C Multi-Tool delivers a scalable and modular suite of RP&C capabilities for use on your existing vehicle fleet. Able to DETECT, PROTECT and DEFEAT a range of explosive threats, both on and off route, it enables freedom of manoeuvre and the maintenance of operational tempo.

Commonality of spares and training ensures a minimal logistical burden for the deployed force.

Detect

• Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to DETECT low metal content threats
• Metal Detector to DETECT high metal content threats
• Active Height Control maximises equipment performance and scanning accuracy
• High definition and infra-red vision systems enable the Positive Identification of surface threats and ‘Ground-Sign’ at distance
• A Laser Spectrometer aids threat awareness and confirmation at distance
• The Manipulator Arm is capable of holding the GPR vertically to allow the scanning of walls and threats adjacent to your route
• A tethered Unmanned Aerial vehicle (UAV) can be provided to aid off-route detection and the Commander’s local situational awareness

 Protect

• Vehicle and crew survivability is enhanced with the inclusion of a Route Proving Roller which protects the host vehicle from Victim Operated (Pressure Plate) threats
• An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) can be provided to give a Commander a persistent over-watch capability, which can both DETECT and DETER the use of Command Initiated devices
• An IR decoy can also be integrated

Defeat

• The Excavator Manipulator Arm can rapidly change attachments, allowing one vehicle to go from a DETECT to DEFEAT mission in a matter of minutes
• Various attachments (Digger, Ripper, Grabber, Bucket) are available to aid ground interrogation and threat neutralisation
• Fitting of an ‘Air lance’ aids threat confirmation (debris removal and non-invasive excavation)
