Tewkesbury defence company to supply British Army with bomb disposal robots 🛡️🤖 New high-tech bomb disposal robots will provide greater protection for soldiers and the public in a new deal for the British Army announced today. 50 of the T4 bomb disposal robots will be able to be used in situations of bomb and hazardous material disposal, helping the explosives team who attend thousands of call outs every year, all over the country. This will greatly reduce the risk to service personnel and the public when neutralising bomb and chemical threats. A £21 million contract with L3Harris Technologies – based in Tewkesbury - will deliver with the first T4 units before the end of 2024. Adept at navigating narrow urban spaces, with its tough all terrain treads and adjustable manipulation arm, the T4 can operate in narrow aisles of planes, trains and buses and can even climb stairs.

𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐀𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: 𝐒𝐚𝐟𝐞𝐭𝐲 𝐁𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 The #BodyArmor Market is a #dynamic and critical sector within the broader defense and #security industry, characterized by the production and distribution of specialized protective #gear designed to safeguard individuals against a range of ballistic #threats, such as #bullets, #shrapnel, and edged #weapons. Body armor, also commonly referred to as ballistic armor or personal protective equipment (PPE), serves as a paramount component in the #safety and #security of military personnel, law enforcement officers, and civilians in #high-risk professions or regions. The significance of #bodyarmor lies in its capacity to mitigate the potentially #life-threatening consequences of various hostile encounters. It is meticulously engineered using advanced materials and manufacturing #techniques, #resulting in lightweight yet durable solutions that provide a formidable barrier against a spectrum of ballistic threats. The primary objective of body armor is to #absorb, #dissipate, or deflect the energy generated by projectiles, thereby reducing the risk of #injury or fatality.

The United States quietly donated to #Ukraine at least one—and probably several—of its most powerful armored breaching vehicles. The equipment includes an #American-made #Assault Breacher: a 55-ton mine- and obstacle-clearing vehicle with the armored hull of an M-1 tank, an attachment for a #British-made mine-plow or dozer blade and launchers for mine-clearing explosive line-charges. The two-person crew of a $4-million Assault Breacher can dig up and safely detonate buried mines, fill in trenches and excavate anti-tank berms—and then mark, with tiny flags, a safe lane for tanks and fighting vehicles to speed through the breach. And the crew can do all of this without leaving the protection of its thickly armored vehicle. There are many types of engineering vehicles that can conduct a breach. As Russia widened its war on #Ukraine in February 2022, Ukrainian engineers already had Soviet-built vehicles with breaching capabilities. And as the war ground into its second year and #Ukrainian forces prepared to go on the offensive across southern Ukraine, #Kyiv’s allies donated scores more breaching vehicles, including the best #Finnish, #Norwegian and South Korean models. The American Assault Breacher weirdly was missing from official lists of pledged equipment, however. While the Americans donated to Ukraine large consignments of engineering and support vehicles, they seemingly left out the Assault Breacher. This despite the U.S. Army recently inheriting scores of ex-U.S. Marine Corps Assault Breachers, all of which should be surplus to Army requirements. The Assault Breacher, or ABV, is one of the best-protected and most versatile breaching vehicles. A pair of the vehicles can do the same work that might require four, five or six less-versatile vehicles such as mine-clearers, bulldozers and excavators. “Commanders on the ground say that [the Assault Breacher] provides better protection than the equipment they are currently using or have been using—and that it reduces the number of vehicles at the point of breach,” said Randall Flack, a director with Pearson, the British firm that manufactures the Assault Breacher’s plows. Lance corporal Jonathan Murray, a Marine Assault Breacher mechanic, said the vehicle can clear a minefield 10 times faster than dismounted engineers can do by hand. Without specifically announcing it, the Americans shipped at least one, and probably at least six—a company’s worth—Assault Breachers to Ukraine. It’s likely the White House lumped the breaching vehicles into the vague category of “mine-clearing equipment” in its periodic announcements regarding military aid to Ukraine.

Enhancing Maritime Safety: The Crucial Role of Armed Guards in Piracy-Prone Waters When sailing through piracy-prone areas, having armed guards on board is essential for ensuring the safety of the crew, vessel, and cargo. Armed security provides a strong deterrent against potential pirate attacks and can effectively discourage pirates from targeting the vessel. In the event of an attempted attack, trained arm guards can respond and defend the ship, significantly increasing the chances of repelling the threat. Their presence not only enhances overall security but also reduces the risk of hijacking, theft, and harm to personnel. Safety at sea is paramount, and the right measures can make all the difference. #MaritimeSecurity #PiracyPrevention #SafeSailing #MaritimeSafety #ShipSecurity #ProtectingOurCrew #ShippingIndustry #SecurityMeasures #SeafaringSafety #MarineProtection

Pearson Engineering LTD, Newcastle, United Kingdom, was awarded an $11,210,158 modification to contract for M1150 Assault Breacher Vehicle Engineering Breaching Systems. The M1150 Assault Breacher Vehicle (ABV) is a highly mobile armoured minefield and obstacle breaching system based on the M1 Abrams chassis, equipped with a mine plow and line charges. Pearson has provided the specially designed plow and the other mine-clearing accessories that are integrated onto the front of the Abrams hull. Work will be performed in Anniston, Alabama, with an estimated completion date of June 30, 2025. Fiscal 2024 weapons and tracked combat vehicle procurement, Army funds in the amount of $11,210,158 were obligated at the time of the award. U.S. Army Contracting Command, Detroit Arsenal, Michigan, is the contracting activity. These tracked combat vehicles were specifically designed to clear pathways for troops and other vehicles through minefields and along roadside bombs and improvised explosive devices. It includes a lane marking system (LMS), an integrated vision system (IVS), and a high lift adapter that can be used to attach either a full-width mine plough (FWMP) or a combat dozer blade.The 72-ton, 40-foot-long (12 m) vehicles are based on the M1 Abrams with a 1,500 horsepower engine, but fitted with only a .50 cal machine gun and a front-mounted 15-foot-wide (4.6 m) plow, supported by metallic skis that glide on the dirt and armed with nearly 7,000 pounds (3,200 kg) of explosives. They are equipped with Linear Demolition Charge System (LDCS): rockets carrying C-4 explosives up to 100–150 yards forward, detonating hidden explosives at a safe distance, so that troops and vehicles can pass through safely. #military #defense #defence #militaryleak https://lnkd.in/gTqax6sQ

Are unexploded WWII bombs getting more dangerous? I’ve linked to a recent article in NewScientist which sheds light on the explosive content in WWII ordnance, suggesting that bombs and shells containing Amatol may be more sensitive than previously thought. I'm curious to know if anyone in my network has any insights on this topic. After the accidental detonation in Great Yarmouth last year, we can see that there is a misconception that these weapons get less dangerous as they age. Given the complexities and potential risks associated with these weapons, ensuring safety and awareness on construction projects is crucial. Igne offers comprehensive UXO risk mitigation services, ranging from preliminary risk assessments to clearance, to address these challenges effectively. Please contact us today if you need any advice: https://lnkd.in/e-ECpsQw https://lnkd.in/d6_J9_RG
