Python comprises a 230m long explosive-filled hose, which is fired into the air by a single rocket to land in a straight line in front of the towing vehicle – the British Army uses BAE Systems’ built Trojan or Terrier® vehicles. The hose then detonates to clear mines from a path at least 200m long and 7m wide. Two devices can also be used in tandem to clear a 400m long path. This world's most advanced minefield breaching / mine clearance system now has an Insensitive Munition explosive fill. This latest version of the British Army’s minefield breaching system, has been successfully fired at the British Army Training Unit Suffield in Canada. The system now uses an Insensitive Munition explosive fill, which makes it resistant to a bullet attack or other impacts that could trigger a detonation as well as improving safety for the user.
Python is also available for training purposes: a re-usable fully inert system that can be utilised with a live rocket and fired where normal safety limitations prohibit the use of high explosives.
Python has been in use for several years – having replaced the earlier Giant Viper System. Giant Viper and Python have been used extensively in conflicts worldwide including Desert Storm and Afghanistan.
