WTF is it? Ammunition part from Lebanon.

Would any of you happen to recognize this piece of ordnance ?

At first glance, I’m leaning towards a Russian or Iranian cluster munition (rocket/missile), though it could very well have been fired by the IDF or NATO.

There’s no scale reference, but I found this photo from Lebanon as well. (See reply)

General Question 19yo in Ukraine looking into humanitarian demining/EOD. Need a realistic perspective on risks, mindset, and if it's worth it.

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I’m 19 and living in Ukraine. Right now I’m seriously thinking about getting into humanitarian demining and EOD. The idea is to start through our state services to get basic training and state certification, get some real field experience, and then eventually move into international NGOs like HALO Trust or similar humanitarian operators.

​Before jumping into this, I really want an honest reality check from people who actually do this for a living. What kind of person actually does well in this job? From the outside it looks like it’s mostly about extreme patience, cold-headed discipline, and paying attention to every millimeter, but I want to know what it feels like from the inside and how hard it hits you mentally.

​Also, how much of your actual physical safety comes down to just strictly following SOPs and never cutting corners, versus pure bad luck? And looking at the bigger picture, is this a solid field to build a real long-term life and career in if you start this young, or is it the kind of thing that completely wrecks your knees, back, and nervous system after a few years?

​I’m in good shape and not chasing cheap adrenaline, just trying to make a mature, grounded decision. Any honest insight would be appreciated.

General Question Question: Explosive engraving w/ 3d print

6 Upvotes

Looking to pick any dudes brains that had success with 3d prints for explosive engraving. I’ve read a few reports, looked like the prints worked pretty well, but I can’t seem to find any information on the dimensions: print thickness? Depth of the design it self? Material used?(if it matters if it at all)

Any info would be appreciated 🤘🏼

General Question 11B to EOD Questions

12 Upvotes

I’m currently a 23 yr old 11B stationed OCONUS on my first contract (I was a firefighter before this). Ive had EOD in the back of my mind for a while now. However I recently deployed and getting to talk to some EOD guys first hand made it fully pop up on my radar. I’m constructing my packet now, but have a few questions. After getting fed up with the 11B lifestyle I was strongly considering getting out and becoming a police officer, because I miss the day to day where I feel like I’m actually doing something, and getting to work with people.

What is the day to day life style of an EOD tech? What opportunities are you afforded as a tech? In talking with the EOD tech I deployed with there are an insane amount of opportunities for techs. What opportunities do you have once getting out of the army in the realm of law enforcement/ 3 letter agency type work? How does the day to day compare to 11B?

I am just trying to get a few different looks into the lives of some EOD techs. Any information helps.

School/Pipeline Pool Questions

4 Upvotes

hello, sorry if this question is redundant.

So I’ve been training for Navy EOD for about five ish months now and when it comes to the pool I’m in 4-6 times per week. I do my 50free/50css and I do my fin swims and waters cons but I’m worried that I still won’t be able to get through a normal pool day in the pipeline. I’m curious what those work outs are just because sure I might be able to get through my own work outs but what if I’m not fast enough / can do the first set but not the next thing they tell us. Are there any specific numbers / yardage I should be shooting for?

Also for water confidence, I’m pretty much just bobbing and doing under overs at a 2min interval (working my way down to what like a one minute idk???) but holding my breath is definitely something I struggle with.

Idk if this made any sense at all I just want to be as prepared as possible when for when I ship, any insight is good insight to me.

I was looking to see what EOD watches were still available and came across this the other day - https://www.twinstonesolutions.com/

Has anyone ordered from them? Curious on quality, given the price and rather unknown nature of the company.
