Description
Defenshield was founded in 2002 in response to the need to protect security personnel in airports after September 11, 2001. Since then, Defenshield's Mobile Defensive Fighting Positions (MDFP's) have been deployed around the world and are saving the lives of a diverse range of customers including the US Marines, US Army, US Navy, US Air Force, the Pentagon Force Protection Agency, in courthouses, at military bases, and at nuclear facilities. MDFP's are unique due to their head-to-toe protection with a full field of vision and a mobile platform. Units are fitted with either lag plates for stability, casters for movement on improved surfaces such as concrete or carpet, or filled ATV-style tires for movement on unimproved surfaces such as grass or gravel. To maximize deterrence and provide aesthetic appeal, units can be painted any color or covered in our unique Camography wrapping which allows the unit to blend into its environment, be it desert camo or the woods or cinder blocks. MDFP's at the Pentagon have a textured grey finish to match the building's exterior and units used in courthouses often have wood grain finishes. Personnel standing behind a unit are protected from bullets, blasts and fragments and are able to return fire or call for back-up. Units are also mobile under fire and can be used to cover and remove injured security team members from a scene of conflict. A single officer can move the unit as needed. ...
