Insensitive munition initiation canister (IMIC)

An insensitive munition initiation canister system, consisting of:

• a first cylindrical body comprising an external surface having a first set of threads being arranged circumferentially around the first cylindrical body;
• a second cylindrical body being connected to the first cylindrical body comprising an external surface with a second set of threads being arranged circumferentially around the second cylindrical body;
• a first cap;
• a detonation cord, a second cap operatively connected to the first cylindrical body;
• and
• a lip located on the first cylindrical body, wherein the second cap is operatively connected to the lip;
• wherein the first cylindrical body comprises a first internal region set to retain an explosive charge,
• wherein the first cylindrical body is configured to sit inside a munition fuze well,
• wherein the first set of threads are set to engage the munition fuze well, wherein the second body includes a second internal region configured to accommodate the detonation cord within the second internal region,
• wherein the second body comprises a second plurality of threads circumferentially disposed around an outer surface of the second body operatively connected to the first cap,
• wherein the detonation cord is a single segment detonation cord,
• wherein the insensitive munition initiation canister is a single density pack canister where the explosive charge is a single explosive charge located in the first internal region, and
• wherein the second internal region is situated on top of the first internal region.
