This brings with it surplus items which, because of the reduction in the number of personnel, are put into storage until a suitable method of disposal is found. High on the priority list is ammunition of all types and nature. Small Arms Ammunition (SAA) accounts for a large percentage of any military organisation’s arsenal. It also contributes significantly to the stockpile of surplus, obsolete and shelf life expired ammunition. EOD Solutions Ltd in conjunction with CALDO engineering have developed the Transportable Ammunition Destruction System (TRADS) to destroy SAA in an environmentally responsible manner. There are two systems available, the TRADS 40 and the TRADS 20, both of which employ ceramic filtration backed up TRADS 20 utilises a furnace that allows small quantities of with a catalytic filter to ensure complete cleaning of the gases. ammunition to be destroyed and then emptied into a bin for Recent improvements have allowed the system to clean the further processing such as Free from Explosives Inspection.

The central element of the project is one of reclamation - a restored and refitted Casspir vehicle, its surfaces fully covered in elaborate, brightly-colored panels of glass beadwork, arrayed in traditional patterns and completed by artisans from Zimbabwe and the Mpumalanga province of South Africa, including women of the Ndebele tribe, known for their craftsmanship. The Casspir Project, is a multifaceted and unprecedented undertaking, ultimately comprising installation, photography, oral history, and documentary, from the South African contemporary artist, Ralph Ziman. 06 05 PERSONAL NARRATIVE People ask me, why bead a Casspir? To me it always seemed obvious: to take this weapon of war, this ultimate symbol of oppression and to reclaim it. To own it, make it African, make it beautiful. Make it shine, yes. And to make it seen and make it felt. It’s hard to explain what I mean. But there’s a line from a Rolling Stones song that goes: “I see a rainbow and I want to paint it black...” I understand that compulsion, but for me it’s different.

The development and testing process was long, incloved, and troubled, and deliveries did not begin until 2005. The Bushmaster is based on a design originally conceived by the Irish company of Timoney; considerable portions of the Bushmaster are therefore manufactured under a licensing agreement with Timoney, though production is undertaken wholly in Australia. ADI began the part of the design process done in Australia, but production later passed to Thales Australia, who also developed several variants. (Virtually all of these variants differ primarily in internal arrangements and equipment; externally, almost all of the different versions differ little from each other.) The primary users of the Bushmaster are the Australian Army and Air Force, but it is also used by the Dutch Army and British Army.
