Strategos “Operators Ballistic Shield” Package
Strategos is excited to announce the availability of the new “High Mobility/Low Profile” Ballistic Shield. This shield has been custom designed by Strategos Instructor Staff who teach the Strategos “Ballistic Shield Operations & Deployment” courses. These instructors are also lead instructors and operators for a SWAT unit of the largest police agency in the United States. Their experience in deploying a ballistic shield in real world operations including barricade, hostage rescue, high risk warrant service is unrivaled.
Several years ago when Strategos was first introduced to the tactical principles that these operators utilize when deploying a ballistic shield in their operations, we were quite simply, “blown away”. Deploying a shield in an offensive manner where the user does not have to sacrifice mobility, flexibility and speed over an extended period of time is critical for success. Achieving these goals not only requires the proper “Software” (training) but the proper “Hardware” (equipment) The Strategos “Operators Ballistic Shield” package fulfills the “hardware” requirements for success. This shield is lightweight, (only 12.6 lbs) balanced from top to bottom and left to right and provides IIIA ballistic protection.
The carry handle was designed with ergonomics and comfortable shield management over extended periods of time. The specifications of this shield are as follows:
- Weight: 12.60
lbs. - 19”Wide x 34”Tall
x 3” Depth (at the carry handle) - Certified IIIA
Ballistic Protection - Specifications
As with any ballistic shield Strategos recommends a having some sort of illumination tool mounted to the shield. When selecting a lighting tool for the shield we wanted to make sure that it would meet the following criteria: - Lightweight
- Durable
& dependable in extreme environments where it may receive impacts from doorways, drops and other objects -
Maximum light output downrange - Multi-function
Capabilities (momentary, constant on and strobing capability)
Strategos was able to achieve the above criteria by sourcing and offering 2 different shield light options for the “High Mobility/Low Profile” Ballistic Shield. Both of these illumination tool options are very lightweight (19 oz. & 25.2 oz respectively w/ batteries installed) - The
“Standard” ballistic shield light produces a very significant 300 lumens of LED light output and operates on 4 - “C” batteries and weighs only 25.2 oz. with batteries installed.
