Life Safety Systems is pleased to announce the introduction of the new, improved Armadillo Riot Tactical Shield Systems with folding handle.
The world-class Armadillo Interlocking Riot Shield system is the standard for officer safety and protection in hostile, riot situation. The unique design of the Armadillo Riot Shield system is its ability to interlock and provide the capability of a phalanx of officers. Providing protection from both forward facing and overhead threats, the Armadillo Riot Shield systems are the standard by which all other riot shields are judged.
Unlike cheap, inferior imported products that break and buckle under stress or a direct kick, the Armadillo maintains its rigidity in the face of direct attack.
The Armadillo has been designated as the “National Standard” for all United Kingdom law enforcement agencies throughout the world and is used extensively in International markets.
The Armadillo was seen in use in the Baltimore riots from last year and is available exclusively in the United States to authorized agencies through Life Safety Systems (LSSI).
History Repeats Itself
Originally used by the Roman Centurion Guard centuries ago, the Armadillo Riot Shields incorporate today’s technologies to create the only patented interlocking riot shield systems available in the world. In fact, they are the “National Standard” for the United Kingdom.
