demolition charge
Structural takedown bomb
A demolition charge is an explosive device designed to destroy structures, vehicles, or obstacles.
Military engineers use demolition charges to blow bridges, clear fortifications, or create breaches in walls.
The term emphasizes the charge's purpose—controlled destruction rather than weaponized harm: They planted demolition charges on the support columns.
