The strategy is designed for all 21B combat engineers in light engineer platoons to fire one live APOBS annually.
The APOBS is made up of a front and rear backpack subsystem containing grenade-filled, line-charge segments; a detonation cord to ignite the grenades; a drogue parachute that provides stability during flight; and two quick connectors.
The APOBS is used to clear areas and create footpaths for troops moving in an area with mines or wire obstacles.
