Defenshield Awarded NSN’s for Lifesaving Ballistic Shields (Video)

Defenshield has been awarded National Stock Numbers (NSNs) for its line of rifle rated ballistic shields. 

These shields are capable of stopping rounds from some of the most sophisticated and long-range sniper and assault weapons deployed.

The level of protection provided is certified by the US State Department, The National Institute of Justice and HP White Lab for protection from Bullet, Blast and Fragmentations from .17 caliber fragments to 30-06 Armor Piercing to 50 caliber fragments traveling at over 4,000 Feet per Second (over 2,700 Miles per Hour).

This special designation will allow State, Federal, Local and International customers ask for, and receive the products they need to protect their security professionals in harm’s way.

Offering up to 12 square feet of viewing area in a mobile package, the DS-190 series offers protection to the military, anti-terrorism teams, combat groups and observers, infrastructure security guards and anyone else who may come under the threat of hostile sniper rifle fire or terrorist attacks.

The DS-190 series is particularly effective for use at fortified ECP’s and overwatch positions.

When a soldier, guard, observer or negotiator is behind a Defenshield MDFP, they become the highest form of deterrence.

This method of purchase is expedited by the Department of Defense’s Logistics Command and is utilized by all four branches of the DoD, Federal agencies and friendly Foreign Military agencies.
