The "Water Container IED" is a big favourite among the Taliban and other insurgent groups, as its made from the exceedingly common plastic water container, stuffed with homemade explosives and triggered by a very simple wooden pressure plate, which when stepped or driven on snaps, completing the circuit between the two contacts on the top and bottom of the plate, causing the device to explode. Not only is it a very simple design made out of common materials, but due to it having hardly any metal components its incredibly hard for metal detectors to pick up when buried in a road.

Ingame this is buried under a small pile of disturbed dirt and is a "Victim-operated" Anti-Personal and Anti-Vehicle IED which means its triggered by both soldiers (from both teams) and vehicles when they walk or drive over them. But unlike some of our other IEDs, it isn't very powerful and will only be able to destroy light vehicles like HMMWVs etc and will cause a significant amount of damage to APCs, but it wont destroy them unless they have already taken damage from something else.

It should also be noted that a few other IEDs will be buried with this small pile of disturbed dirt although it was originally for the Water Container IED :)

On top of this Chuc has also made a little pile of stones which insurgents use to mark locations they have set their IEDs so they know when to detonate their IEDs as well as help warn the locals that there are IEDs "past this point" which you can use ingame in the same way if you wish :)

    great work, now maybe my squad leaders will take me seriously when i suggest only operating one or two vehicles at a time and have dismounts at the ready to check paths.

    Ford ranger or humvee can be toast from those. Seen a 200lb of HME in a jug like that hit a Ford Ranger, not pretty man.

    I think he means what actually makes the spark or w/e to set them off. I'm assuming some small battery that completes a link when the board snaps.

    This is actually a pretty cool design. Gotta give it to the talibibs to create some pretty creative IEDs lol.
