The manufacturing

All training devices are made using CNC technology. The parts are milled from stock materials and require several different steps to complete. The plastic parts are made of polyamide which is known for its strength and outstanding wear resistance. Firing mechanisms and other critical parts are made out of corrosion-resistant steel. 

All sales are restricted to official use only and are not available to the general public.

EST-M1 training landmine

The story

After months of demining sand-filled training landmines and encountering minefields made of wooden disks, it was clear. The psychological fear had completely disappeared. It was at that moment when the idea of EST-M1 emerged which could take the minefield training into the 21st century. 

After years of testing, we have developed a reusable training landmine for instructors that use NATO 5.56 blank ammunition for the blast and sound effects. The combination of heavy-duty plastic and stainless steel parts makes the EST-M1 highly durable and is able to withstand 2.5 tons of weight.

EST-CIED training IED

The story

No doubt that small controlled blasts intensify military training. The excitement and the adrenaline rush are essential in every military course. Training IEDs made of lamps and sirens solve only half the problem. This is why EST-CIED brought a smile to instructors' faces when they first saw it in action. 


The electrically operated trigger system allows the instructors to create different switches and use EST-CIED in various situations. The device uses 9V batteries and is made out of special military-grade plastic and stainless steel parts. A NATO 5.56 blank cartridge delivers a small and safe blast when the circuit is closed by the switch.

EST-DET training charge

The story

Fire in the hole!" followed by a push on a blasting machine button and a loud bang. A procedure that is strictly regulated and requires special training areas and paperwork. But not with EST-DET. Same effect with less headache. 


The device uses the electrical impulse of a blasting machine to initiate a NATO 7.62 blank cartridge. The device is safe to handle and can be used in a variety of situations to imitate a blast of a charge. The passive direct initiation system (PDIS) is only active when a blasting machine is connected to terminals.

EST-TMOR training drone bomb

The story

It is quite easy to modify commercial drones to drop grenades. This is the reason why drones have found more use during conflicts. But how to test if a unit is prepared for a drone attack?


EST-TMOR is a small training bomb that fires a blank cartridge upon ground impact. The stainless steel core and shatter-free plastic can withstand impacts to even concrete surfaces. In fact the harder the surface the better.

EST-PFM1 training scatter mine

The story

3D printing scatter mines for training purposes has become a common practice amongst instructors. But during the dark, the soldier nor the instructor can't really tell, if the "thing" under the boot is a rock or a printed mine. Luckily EST-PFM1 solves this problem.


EST-PFM1 is a replica of the Russian PFM-1 scatter mine that is designed to enhance military training. The training mine is made out of rubber and for metal detectors the neck of the mine can be fitted with a metal ring. Stepping on the training mine produces a feedback sound, that serves as an indicator for both the soldier and the instructor.

EST-F1 training hand grenade

The story

Hand grenades can be used as anti-handling devices or booby traps to target military personnel. There are endless possibilities for which operators must be prepared. This is why we developed EST-F1 - to expect the unexpected. 


EST-F1 is an inert metal replica of the Russian F-1 hand grenade that is equipped with a clever buzzer system. The battery-powered circuit is activated when the handle is released and the firing pin hits the inside. The sound delay is determined by the rotating cap of the buzzer system which can be easily set to 0 or 3.5 seconds.

EST-M21T training directional AP mine

The story

Directional mines are force multipliers. They are used primarily in ambushes and as anti-infiltration devices against enemy units. Dummy directional mines serve little purpose in force-on-force training. That's why EST-M21T is a game changer.

EST-POMZ training stake mine

The story

EST-POMZ is a cost-efficient training stake mine that uses standard NATO 5.56 blank cartridges for the effect. The training land mine has a simple spring release system, that is activated by a tripwire.

EST-MTO module tank obstacle

The story

After testing the iconic WWII "Czech hedgehog" with a 45T excavator, the myth was busted. The steel obstacle is unable to withstand the weight of modern-day armoured vehicles and tanks. After 3D modelling, strength calculations and testing, the EST-MTO exceeded expectations and found a place in the Estonian Defence Forces. 


The obstacle is made out of standard steel profiles and is easy to produce. The design can be scaled down to a smaller size to cope with commercial vehicles at security checkpoints. Our aim is to offer you the know-how and the drawings so you could procure the obstacles locally.
