Nail car bomb.
"This is your classic old nail bomb. The simpler they are, the more effective they are."
- Peter Crowe IRA authority
A Nail Bomb is a homemade explosive device that uses nails as shrapnel. It was the special weapon of the Irish Republican Army.
Description
Because the weapon is custom-made, it's size, materials, and explosive power varies from one bomb to another. As its name implies, it consists primarily of an explosive, such as Semtex, and copious amounts of nails or other metallic objects for fragmentation and shrapnel (the pipe of a pipebomb also becomes shrapnel). Throughout the episode, various versions were shown, from pipe bombs to remote charges.
