CF EOD operators are required to clear unexploded ordnance (UXO)
and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs). IEDs come in all sizes,
shapes and forms, with various explosive contents and with
increasingly sophisticated means of initiation. IEDs pose the
most serious threat to EOD operators. In some cases, the HB/CP
Suit (heavy bomb suit) lacks sufficient portability to be taken
on task. For these non-permissive environments, a lighter,
portable protection system is required to provide similar
protection in a scalable form when the HB/CP Suit cannot be used.
A TLB Suit will be worn during IED disposal operations to
provide protection against explosive blast effects and
fragmentation contents of an IED. The suit will be employed
anywhere in the world under various climatic conditions and
harsh physical environments. It will be subject to repeated
periods of sustained and rugged use followed by extended storage.
All other terms and conditions are detailed in the RFP and its
associated documents.
