Mission Ready Services CTO Francisco Martinez said: “We strive to meet the changing demands being placed on military and law enforcement personnel and we believe this product provides them with another tool to help them successfully complete their mission.
“In addition to the application for this order, we have developed no-contact shield covers for riot control units and for correctional facilities."
When activated, the shield cover releases a strong electrical pulse, an electrical shock sound and a spark that can deter an assailant.
The no-contact technology is integrated into a textile composite that can be applied into any type of shield cover, including riot control and correctional facilities types, as well as other form factors, the company said in a statement.
