Abstract
An explosive device which has a retainer with a groove, that houses a charge adapted to produce a shock wave upon detonation. The retainer is attached to a target such as an airplane canopy, so that the charge is spaced from the target a predetermined distance. Between the charge and the target is a transmitting medium that transmits the shock waves of the charge to the target. The transmitting medium is constructed from an essentially incompressible material such as rubber, which transmits the shock waves without dissipating much of the blast energy of the charge.
