The Van Trepanâ„¢ is a lightweight plastic charge case which is loaded with explosive by the user. It provides a means of cutting a circular hole in the side, door or roof of a vehicle to facilitate inspection of the contents and insertion of a disruption charge if needs be. Typically, a Van Trepanâ„¢ will be deployed in a situation where a suspect van has been identified but the bomb tech wants to confirm the presence of a VBIED before deploying a disruptor such as the MLVDâ„¢. The Van Trepanâ„¢ allows him to do this with little risk of causing a sympathetic detonation or shaking the vehicle too violently.
