KIANG Bulletproof Shield Types And Performance Analysis

Main types of bulletproof shields

Handheld bulletproof shields

Description: Handheld bulletproof shields are usually used by a single person and are suitable for rapid response and tactical operations.

Material: High-strength composite materials such as Kevlar, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), ceramic composite materials, etc. are usually used.

Performance: The protection level can reach NIJ (National Institute of Justice of the U.S. Department of Justice) level III or IV, and can resist high-powered rifle bullets and explosive fragments.

Features: Lightweight, easy to carry and operate, and flexible.

Vehicle-mounted bulletproof shields

Description: A bulletproof shield installed on a vehicle to protect people inside and outside the vehicle.

Material: Steel plate, ceramic composite material and high-strength composite material.

Performance: Usually reaches NIJ level III or IV, and can resist large-caliber bullets and high-energy explosions.

Features: Large protection area, suitable for vehicle-mounted raids and long-term garrisons.

Mobile bulletproof shield

Description: A bulletproof shield with wheels that can be pushed and pulled by one or more people, suitable for scenarios that require mobile protection.

Material: High strength composite materials, steel plates, etc.

Performance: The protection level can be customized according to needs, generally NIJ III or IV level.

Features: Provides a large protection area, suitable for tactical formations and position defense.

Performance characteristics of KIANG bulletproof shield

Protection capability

The protection capability of a bulletproof shield is mainly reflected in its ability to resist different types of ballistic threats. The NIJ standard is a widely recognized ballistic capability test standard in the world, including different levels from IIIA (pistol bullets) to IV (rifle bullets). High-level bulletproof shields can resist AP (armor penetration) bullets and high-energy bullets.

Weight and portability

The weight of a bulletproof shield directly affects its portability and operability. Modern bulletproof shields use lightweight materials such as Kevlar and UHMWPE, which greatly reduces weight while maintaining high protection performance. Lightweight shields are suitable for rapid response and long-term carrying.

Durability and service life

Bulletproof shields need to maintain stable performance under multiple uses and harsh environments. High-quality materials and precision manufacturing processes ensure the durability of bulletproof shields. The service life of bulletproof shields is generally 5-10 years, depending on the frequency of use and maintenance status.

Examples and effects of bulletproof shields in actual applications

Application in military operations

In modern battlefield environments, bulletproof shields play an important role in tasks such as urban combat, counter-terrorism raids, and hostage rescue. For example, in urban combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, US special forces used handheld bulletproof shields for house clearance and raids, greatly reducing casualties.

Application in police operations

When responding to shootings, riots, and hijackings, police often use mobile bulletproof shields to form a protective formation to protect the safety of team members. In the 2015 Paris terrorist attack, French police used bulletproof shields to successfully rescue several trapped civilians.

Applications in special missions

Ballistic shields provide additional safety protection when dealing with explosives and chemical and biological threats. For example, in bomb disposal operations, the use of high-protection-level ballistic shields can resist fragments and shock waves generated by explosions.
