An underwater hydro-reactive explosive system includes a pressure vessel with a central section of water disposed between identical sections of a material selected from the group consisting of thermites, intermetallics, nano-sized metallic particles, and micro-sized metallic particles. The water is provided in a stoichiometric quantity that provides a complete reaction with the material following simultaneous detonation of the sections thereof.

1. An underwater hydro-reactive explosive system, comprising: a pressure vessel;a hydro-reactive explosive stack being confined within said pressure vessel, said stack including a central section of water disposed between identical sections of a reactive material selected from the group consisting of thermites, intermetallics, nano-sized metallic particles, and micro-sized metallic particles, where said reactive material is mixed with an explosive; anda detonator being coupled to each of said identical sections of said reactive material for causing a simultaneous detonation, wherein said water is provided in a quantity that provides a complete reaction with said reactive material following simultaneous detonation of said identical sections. 2. The system as in claim 1, wherein said pressure vessel is cylindrical. 3. The system as in claim 1, wherein said water is fresh water. 4. The system as in claim 1, wherein said water is seawater. 5. An underwater hydro-reactive explosive system, comprising: a housing;opposing and identical sections of reactive material disposed in said housing and spaced apart from one another to define a chamber in said housing;water in said chamber,a water-impervious barrier disposed between said water and each of said sections of reactive material;opposing and identical explosives disposed in said housing and sandwiching a combination of said sections of reactive material, each said water-impervious barrier, and said water, and detonators being coupled to each of said opposing and identical explosives for causing a simultaneous detonation thereof, wherein said water is provided in a quantity that provides a complete reaction with said sections of reactive material when said explosives are detonated simultaneously. 6. The system as in claim 5, wherein said housing is cylindrical. 7. The system as in claim 5, wherein said housing comprises a pressure vessel. 8. The system as in claim 5, wherein said reactive material is selected from the group consisting of nano-sized metallic particles and micro-sized metallic particles. 9. The system as in claim 5, wherein said water is fresh water. 10. The system as in claim 5, wherein said water is seawater. 11. An underwater hydro-reactive explosive system, comprising: a housing;a layered arrangement sealed within said housing, said layered arrangement including in sequential and contiguous fashion;a first explosive;a first reactive material;a first water-impervious barrier,water;a second water-impervious barrier;a second reactive material; anda second explosive; anddetonators being coupled to said first explosive and said second explosive for causing a simultaneous detonation, wherein said first explosive and said second explosive are identically configured,wherein said first reactive material and said second reactive material are identically configured, andwherein said water is provided in a quantity that provides a complete reaction with said first reactive material, and wherein said second reactive material follows simultaneous detonation of said first explosive and said second explosive. 12. The system as in claim 11, wherein said housing is cylindrical. 13. The system as in claim 11, wherein said housing comprises a pressure vessel. 14. The system as in claim 11, wherein said first reactive material and said second reactive material are selected from the group consisting of nano-sized metallic particles and micro-sized metallic particles. 15. The system as in claim 11, wherein said water is fresh water. 16. The system as in claim 11, wherein said water is seawater.
