Every line below is supplied through WTF as the authorized U.S. point of contact. Market access, export control, and sustainment are handled on the same file as the equipment itself — so the hardware, the paperwork, and the support chain arrive together.
The Dagger Disrupter is a compact, lightweight disrupter built for rapid deployment in the field. Environmental anchoring, a Dagger Zero Convergence laser aiming system, and shared 12ga ammunition with the Lance Disrupter combine accuracy with minimal footprint for operators who need full disruptive power without the bulk.
Manufactured by CTS, Pointe-Claire, Canada — 20+ years in EOD and homeland security manufacturing, deployed in 55+ countries. WTF serves as CTS's authorized U.S. representative and systems integrator, coordinating market access, procurement, and commercial support for American agencies and units.
Dimensions and weights for the disrupter itself and for the tactical chest rig and backpack it deploys from.
| Disrupter on Tripod Stand | |
| Height | 240 mm [~9.45"] |
| Length, barrel w/ breech + nozzle | 380 mm [~15"] |
| Minimum Weight | 3.4 kg [7.5 lbs] |
| Barrel Capacity | 50 ml |
| Ammunition | 12ga, Percussion Primed |
| Initiation | Electric (Floating Breech) |
| Tactical Chest Rig & Backpack | |
| Dimensions | 360x250x130 mm [~14x10x5"] |
| Fully Packed Weight | ~8 kg [17.5 lbs] |
All payload options run from a standard 12ga cartridge, shared with the Lance Disrupter, so units already fielding Lance carry a single ammunition line.
| Payload Options | |
| Water Shot | Standard 12ga cartridge |
| Granular Water Shot | Standard 12ga cartridge |
| Projectile | Standard 12ga cartridge |
| Field Configuration | |
| Aiming | Dagger Zero Convergence laser |
| Anchoring | Hook & line kit — paracord, pitons, hooks, carabiners |
| Anchor Surfaces | Concrete, soil, poles, vehicles, platforms |
| Intended Users | Special forces & tactical units |
The system ships with a MOLLE-compatible tactical chest rig and backpack that securely packs the disrupter along with every accessory, projectile and cartridge needed for a swift deployment. Both pieces can also be run as a stand-alone backpack and chest rig.

The Lance Disrupter combines many superior features into one system that empowers first responders in their most difficult missions. CTS built it to be a highly practical tool — one that lets EOD technicians truly focus on their target and minimize distractions during deployment.
One Lance covers work that normally takes several disrupters: high-precision long-range water shots, de-armer and specialized projectiles, and solid slugs all fire from the same 12ga percussion-primed cartridge. Recoil is absorbed without a counter-shot, deployment is tool-free and field serviceable, and the system integrates on most EOD robots as readily as it does on the Scabbard® Stand.
Manufactured by CTS, Pointe-Claire, Canada — 20+ years in EOD and homeland security manufacturing, deployed in 55+ countries. WTF serves as CTS's authorized U.S. representative and systems integrator, coordinating market access, procurement, and commercial support for American agencies and units.
Dimensions, weight and ballistics for the disrupter as deployed on the Scabbard® Stand — collapsed for transport through to full extension.
| Disrupter on Scabbard® Stand | |
| Collapsed Height | 165 mm [6.5"] |
| Max Height | 570 mm [22.4"] |
| Nominal Length | 584 mm [23"] |
| Minimum Weight | 9.5 kg [20.9 lbs] |
| Barrel Capacity | 100 ml (+50 ml with extension) |
| Water Velocity | 220–475 mm/s |
| Ammunition | 12ga, Percussion Primed |
| Initiation | Electric or Shock Tube (non-el) |
Every projectile in the line is powered by the same 12ga cartridge — the same ammunition the Dagger Disrupter fires — so a mixed fleet stays on a single consumable chain.
| Payload Options | |
| Water Shot | High precision, long range |
| Granular Water Shot (GWS) | Standard 12ga cartridge |
| De-armer | Blade and specialized projectiles |
| Solid | Steel slugs |
| Capability | |
| Coverage | Eliminates the need for multiple disrupters |
| Platforms | Scabbard® Stand or integrated on most EOD robots |
| Deployment | Tool-free, field serviceable |
| Recoil | Absorption without counter-shot |
| Intended Users | EOD teams & first responders |
The Lance deploys tool-free and is field serviceable throughout — the Scabbard® Stand goes from 165 mm collapsed for transport to 570 mm at full extension, and the same disrupter integrates on most EOD robots without a change of hardware. Because recoil is absorbed within the system, the shot is taken with no counter-shot and no loss of power, which is what makes the Lance safe to mount on a robot and to fire indoors.
Patented Zero Convergence lasers with nothing to re-zero, Floating Breech® electric or shock-tube initiation free of EMF/RFI risk, and self-contained recoil absorption for indoor and robot-mounted work.

The Twin Lance Disrupter is a great example of innovative and unique ideas becoming a reality and making a difference in the global EOD effort — part of the CTS vision. With interchangeable parts and mounting on the same Scabbard® Stand, this double-barrelled disrupter carries every innovative feature of its single-barrel counterpart and is practical in many situations.
Two barrels mean simultaneous shots for increased disruptive power, varied projectile combinations for wider strategic alternatives, and faster response times on multi-charge targets — from the stand or mounted on an ROV without changing the platform.
Manufactured by CTS, Pointe-Claire, Canada — 20+ years in EOD and homeland security manufacturing, deployed in 55+ countries. WTF serves as CTS's authorized U.S. representative and systems integrator, coordinating market access, procurement, and commercial support for American agencies and units.
The Twin Lance shares the Scabbard® Stand, breeches, nozzles and aiming system with the single-barrel Lance, so a unit already fielding Lance adds capability without adding a second parts chain.
| Disrupter | |
| Barrels | Two, interchangeable parts |
| Mounting | Scabbard® Stand — shared with Lance |
| Initiation | Electric Floating Breech® or Shock-Tube breech |
| Recoil | Hybrid recoil-less absorption system |
| Nozzles | BNR (restricted) & BNO (open) brake nozzles |
| Aiming | CTS patented Zero-Convergence, two green lasers |
| Scabbard® Stand | |
| Material | Aircraft-grade aluminium |
| Articulations | Quick-release & push-swivel, no tools |
| Stand-off | Configurable to extend technician distance 3-fold |
| Serviceability | Field repairable, minimal tools, no welded parts |
Two barrels can be loaded with different payloads at once, so a single approach covers more than one target condition and shortens the response time on multi-charge devices.
| Payload Options | |
| Water Shot | Standard cartridge — BNR nozzle |
| Granular Water Shot (GWS) | Standard cartridge — BNR nozzle |
| Soft Frangible | Micro Shots, Pipe Rounds |
| Hard Frangible | Dusty Rounds — precision to 10 m and beyond |
| Solid & De-armer | Steel slugs, blade and fork-shaped projectiles |
| Deployment | |
| Platforms | Scabbard® Stand or ROV / robot, interoperable |
| Multi-Shot | Simultaneous shots, varied projectile combinations |
| Low Profile | Under-vehicle capability from the stand |
| Carry | Baldric Backpack — complete Lance or Twin Lance solution |
| Intended Users | EOD teams, special forces & tactical units |
Constructed out of lightweight yet highly robust aircraft-grade aluminium, the Scabbard stand fits conveniently in a backpack and is highly configurable without any tools. Durable quick-release and push-swivel articulations allow for extremely swift deployment and accurate aiming.
The CTS Baldric Backpack stores a complete Lance or Twin Lance Disrupter solution for rapid intervention while keeping safety, durability and ergonomics at the highest standards. It unzips and unfolds its whole length to expose all contents on the ground or while still worn on a person.

The Hybrid Recoil-Less System allows the Lance to be mounted on most tactical EOD robots. Mounting brackets are designed in collaboration with the robot manufacturers to ensure the best performance and eliminate the risk of damage.
Because recoil is absorbed within the system, the shot is taken with no counter-shot and no loss of power — which is what makes the disrupter safe to fire from a manipulator arm at stand-off distance. The Twin Lance carries over the same way, interoperable between the Scabbard® Stand and an ROV or robot, and the Zero Convergence lasers hold the aim point with nothing to re-zero as the approach distance changes.
