In-Game Description[]

Remote Explosive

A deployed Remote Explosive.

Manually Triggered Remote Explosive:

"The F/41 series of remote explosives are among the most powerful manually triggered demolitions devices available in New Eden. Each unit is reliable and effective, using a mix of three volatile materials to produce a yield high enough to penetrate layered armour, shatter reinforced structures, and decimate infantry units.

These explosives are deployed by hand and detonated using a coded frequency generated by the Cortex Holographic Interface, which maintains a database of unique activation ciphers for every charge placed. The F/41 product line also boasts several other advanced features, such as EM hardened circuits, an encrypted multi-frequency receiver, and a lightweight hybrid ceramic frame."

Proximity Triggered Anti-Vehicle Explosive:

"A proximity variant of the F/41 series of remote explosives designed to detonate automatically when an unidentified vehicle signature is detected. Each unit is reliable and effective, using a mix of three volatile materials to produce a yield high enough to penetrate layered armour, shatter reinforced structures, and decimate infantry units caught in the blast. The F/41 product line also boasts several other advanced features, such as EM hardened circuits, an encrypted multi-frequency receiver, and a lightweight hybrid ceramic frame."

Overview[]

The Remote Explosive is a deployable equipment used to kill infantry and destroy vehicles. The explosive is detonated manually by the operator, any infantry in the blast radius will be killed and any vehicle will be destroyed or severely damaged.

The Proximity Explosive is automatically detonated when a vehicle enters it's blast radius. It will not trigger when infantry cross over it. The proximity version deals reduced damage, but can be left unattended.

Both versions can be destroyed by small-arms fire and grenades (causing them to detonate, potentially killing anyone in the blast radius) and can be detected by Active Scanners. Only a limited quantity of explosives may be carried.
