This report investigates the replacement of halon 1211 in handheld extinguishers used in combat vehicles. Four different tests have been carried out with five available agents: HFC 236fa, HFC 227ea, CO2, water mist and a extinguishing fluid. The results from the tests indicates CO2 to be the best alternative, although it is not as versatile as halon 1211
