An explosive weapon generally uses high explosive to project blast and often fragmentation from a point of detonation.
Explosive weapons may be subdivided by their method of manufacture into explosive ordnance and improvised explosive devices (IED).
When explosive weapons fail to function as designed they are often left as unexploded ordnance.
