👉 A sticky weapon is a type of improvised explosive device (IED) that uses materials like duct tape, glue, or other adhesives to bind together explosive components, such as plastic bags filled with nitrocellulose or other flammable substances. When the adhesive is cut or torn, it releases the explosive material, which can cause significant damage and injury. The adhesive's sticky nature ensures that the explosive remains attached until it is intentionally detonated, often by pulling or cutting the binding material. This makes sticky weapons particularly dangerous and difficult to disarm, as they can remain active for extended periods until triggered.
