HESH stands for High Explosive Squash Head. HESH is its British name, and it is usually referred to in the United States as HEP: High Explosive Plastic. It refers to a warhead containing a soft, malleable high explosive payload which splats against its target and flattens itself onto its surface before detonating. This has some interesting effects and uses. | |
