RDX is a component used in conjunction with explosives to increase their destructive power. Turns TNT and C-1 into HMX and C-4 , respectively. It can also be used as an explosive thrown weapon on its own.


Description[]

"A jar filled with RDX crystals is more powerful than TNT and easier to detonate. The only drawback of RDX is its instability; it can be set off by a moderate shock."

Locations[]

  • F8 - Cambria Hospital (one or two jars in condition below 90% can be found)
  • F9 - Cambria University (two jars, condition around 80%)
  • Devin Connell - sells mint condition jars.


Notes[]

  • While you cannot attach a detonator to the RDX, it can be detonated by either placing it on the ground near the target and setting off another explosive (ie a grenade) near it, or just thrown at the target. When used in the second way, the RDX jar will explode upon impact.
  • Being extremely unstable, RDX will detonate should a merc carrying it get caught into even small explosition such as from Land Mine or Mini Grenade.
