Apparatus And Method For Disabling A Ground Engaging Traction Device Of A Land Vehicle

An apparatus for disabling a ground engaging traction device of a land vehicle, comprising:

• a strap package further comprising—
• a plurality of penetrators arranged within omni-directional sections, wherein an individual penetrator is configured to breach the traction device,
• a sleeve for containing the sections, the sleeve further comprising stitches for separating the sections;
• at least one retraction loop attached with the sleeve, the retraction loop configured for receiving a retraction cable;
• a tether connected with at least one section,
• a projectile connected with the tether, wherein launching the projectile pulls the tether, and
• at least one flexible linkage connecting the sections;
• and
• a launcher coupled to the projectile, wherein
• activating the launcher in a first mode causes the projectile to pull the tether connected to the section, thus deploying the strap package, and
• activating the launcher in the second mode causes the retraction cable to be pulled, thus folding in the strap package.
