‘ASTORS’ Award Winning LRAD Corp Receives $1.M Int’l Defense Order

The LRAD 100X is the industry's leading portable acoustic hailing system for law enforcement and emergency responders.

LRAD Corporation, the Platinum Award Winner for Best Long Range Acoustic Hailing System for Two Years Running in the Annual ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Program, has received a $1.0 million order for LRAD 100X and LRAD 450XL AHDs from an international defense department.

The man-portable and vehicle-mounted communication systems will be used for both training and operational deployments.

LRAD 450XL & LRAD 100X

The Industry’s Loudest, Most Intelligible AHD for its Size & Weight

Low profile, lightweight and designed for temporary or fixed mounting on tripods, small vessels, vehicles and Common Remotely Operated Weapon Stations (CROWS), the LRAD 450XL uses an enhanced, patent pending technology to generate the audio output of a unit almost twice its size and weight with the same high level of clarity and intelligibility consistent with the LRAD product line.

The LRAD 450XL is easily transported to provide a highly effective, long range communications and warning capability.

LRAD's highly intelligible, long range voice and warning siren broadcasts establish large safety zones, determine intent, safely change behavior, resolve uncertain situations and save lives on both sides of the Long Range Acoustic Device®.
