I like the idea … I’ve heard this stuff cures to a ‘concrete hardness’ within minutes

Then fill the tunnels with chlorine gas.

Not quite as cool as spraying the dog with texture coat but close.

I think this whole article is BS. But, I see now where reports of the IDF using nerve gas to seal tunnels came from.

The ‘sponge bombs’ create a sudden explosion of foam that rapidly expands and then hardens.

This old technology.

Better than quikcrete - it’s like that sticky insulation stuff you get from Home Depot that comes in a can. When you spray it, it quickly expands - then hardens very quickly. Military has applications for it which I can’t discuss.

“Good Stuff” filler foam, only deployed much faster than a spray can.

It’s not BS - IDF can section off tunnels using this stuff. Then concentrate rescue efforts in the Sectioned off tunnel by pumping in gases to incapacitate anyone trapped
