Robbanóeszköz

Robbanóeszköz is a Hungarian term that translates to "explosive device" or "explosive ordnance." It refers to any device that contains an explosive material and is designed to detonate, producing a rapid expansion of gases and a shockwave. These devices can range widely in their composition, design, and intended purpose.

The primary component of a robbanóeszköz is the explosive charge, which can be a primary explosive (sensitive and used to initiate detonation) or a secondary explosive (less sensitive but more powerful). The device also typically includes a mechanism for initiation, such as a fuse, detonator, or electrical firing system, which triggers the detonation of the explosive material.

Robbanóeszközök can be classified based on their function. Military applications include grenades, mines, artillery shells, and bombs, designed for combat purposes. Civilian uses, though often regulated, can include demolition charges for construction or mining, as well as pyrotechnics for signaling or entertainment. Unintended or illicitly manufactured explosive devices, often referred to as improvised explosive devices (IEDs), pose significant security risks. The production, possession, and use of robbanóeszközök are subject to strict legal regulations in most countries due to their inherent danger.
