Arrival of TRIDENT: Advancing Safety and Precision in EOD and Subsea Operations
We are pleased to announce the arrival of TRIDENT, an advanced programmable auto-inflation device developed by DARKFORGE DEFENCE. This innovative system is designed to significantly enhance safety, efficiency, and precision across Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) and wider subsea operations.
TRIDENT represents a major step forward in subsea recovery and risk mitigation technology. When paired with a lift bag system, it enables operators to remotely control the timed ascent of pre-positioned items—such as Unexploded Ordnance (UXO)—to the surface. This capability allows EOD divers to safely exit the water prior to lift operations, reducing direct exposure to hazardous environments and significantly lowering risk to life.
Beyond military and EOD applications, TRIDENT can also be employed by diving engineers working on offshore oil platforms and subsea construction projects. It provides a safe and controlled method for lifting hazardous or unstable objects, minimizing diver exposure in complex industrial environments.
Key Capabilities
Programmable Deployment:
Schedule lift operations using either a countdown timer (from 1 minute up to 3 years) or a fully programmable date, time, and year setting.Enhanced Diver Safety:
Enables divers to pre-position equipment and return to the surface before activation, reducing exposure to risk.Versatile Operational Use:
Suitable for EOD teams, offshore oil and gas operations, and subsea construction where controlled lifting of dangerous items is required. Attach to ROVs to negate loss of the system.Reliable Long-Term Operation:
Low power consumption with intelligent sleep mode provides extended operational endurance.
Dagger is the fastest assault IEDD system on the market.
When accuracy and speed is essential, DAGGER is the tool you need.
Weather rapidly moving through an IED belt, or gaining access during Hostage rescue.
DAGGER and the DAGGER Assault system will enable you to safely deal with every explosive threat while
maintaining the momentum of the assault.
For ultimate success every time, choose the DAGGER.
