Hydrogen can only burn in the presence of oxygen. The pipe does not contain any, and combustion isn’t possible until after they have had time to mix. It’s also not going to explode from the pressure, because it’s the same as the atmosphere. The shaped charge is obviously going to explode, that’s the point, but it will be more directional. That still doesn’t sound safe in an enclosed space. Maybe the vehicle could deploy a gasket seal with airbags or something to reduce the leakage of expensive hydrogen.
That would likely create sparks, and provided the tube has been cut the hydrogen is going to explode.
