    The suit is there to reduce fatalities and minimize injuries, not to avoid every poasible injury.

    Sometimes there are situations where touch and feel is critical, although my understanding is that the preferred approach today is remote detonation where even the suit is away from the likely blast radius.

      Most of the times my favorite approach is not to be a bomb expert. To this day it has not failed me yet

      Remote detonation sounds much safer.

      EoD guys looked at all available military possible and said “nah I want one with real risk.”
