About ShockRounds
The ShockRounds(TM) enabled munitions have the potential to provide more versatile, effective and safe 'hostile situation' solutions for law enforcement, military, border control, anti-terrorism and Homeland Security initiatives. When fired, ShockRounds(TM) enabled munitions will generate extremely high voltage charges that have the capacity, depending on the munitions used, to affect behaviour modification or target incapacitation on impact. The ShockRounds(TM) technology is proposed to be incorporated in both less-lethal rubber bullets as well as in traditional metal jacket munitions.
Given the global emphasis on law enforcement, security and terrorism prevention, the need for new and more effective non-lethal and less-lethal weapons could not be more acute. ShockRounds™ technology is applicable to all these markets and security needs as they will introduce greater versatility, safety and options for the personnel that work in these market sectors.
