Under the contract, the company will provide 600 DT1 and 120 T2 multipurpose force protection systems, which will be used for stock purposes and for the ongoing joint training exercises conducted in Burgos, Northern Spain.
DefenCell is air-droppable, man portable force protection wall system, with a non-metallic structure that will not allow it to generate any secondary ammunition and allow it to be safely pushed off the back of a lorry with no risk of damage.
Currently DefenCell is on operational deployment in Afghanistan with the British Army protecting two highly vulnerable ammunition supply points in two separate locations at Camp Bastion in Helmand province and Kandahar Airport.
