- tragomaskhalos 13y agoI think you misunderstood - the purpose was to self-destruct the rocket, so although I don't know the details I'd imagine it was a sensor to detect the vehicle exceeding its flight parameters coupled to either an explosive packet or something in the fuel system to make the rocket go bang
- gnu8 13y agoNothing too fancy, just strategically placed explosive charges to break up the vehicle to stop it from traveling further down range and disperse the propellant to reduce the size of the explosion.
