TKM Unlimited, Inc.s (Patent Pending) Ballistic-Rapid Air Deployable System (B-RADS) technology fills the need for next generation force protection and emergency response ballistic and blast protection equipment. Current ballistic protection equipment, such as shields, are difficult to transport/use due to their rigidity, reliance on mass/thickness to stop projectiles, and offer little to no force dampening protection often causing the user to suffer blunt force trauma injuries. The B-RADS is designed as a ballistic protection system. It uses a blend of ballistic resistant material, fused with a unique air bladder and rapid inflation valve, that inflates in second from its compact pre-inflation configuration to its full operational configuration. As an example, our National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Level IIIA equivalent B-RADS shield, when actuated, transforms from a stowed 8 inch in diameter by 26-inch-long compact roll into a ridged 26 x 43 x 2.5-inch shield. TKMs force absorbing air bladder defuses and dampens virtually all ballistic impact negating user blunt force trauma. TKMs revolutionary B-RADS innovation can be adapted from a shield application to body armor, stretcher, panel, personnel bunker, and more. Whether engaging in tactical operations, Active Shooter threats, or conducting Agile Combat Employment (ACE) missions, where ballistic and/or blast protection is a necessity, you need the protection TKMs B-RADS technology brings to the fight.
