Download or read book Review of the Department of Justice s Use of Less Lethal Weapons written by Barry Leonard and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use of such weapons as batons, pepper spray and powder, ¿bean bag¿ shotgun rounds, baton launchers, rubber projectiles, and Tasers can enhance the safety of law enforcement (LE) officers and the public during LE operations. However, significant injuries and fatalities can result from their use. This review determines the types of less-lethal weapons used; the extent to which DoJ components are using these weapons, whether training and controls have been implemented to ensure the weapons are used properly; whether the components have identified the impact of using these weapons on their missions; and whether the DoJ assesses, deploys, and oversees new and emerging less-lethal weapon technologies.

Download or read book The Development of Blast Actuated Impact Munitions written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is little doubt that the single most important life saving development for law enforcement tactical officers since Richard Davis invented his Second Chance soft body armor in 1972 has been the introduction of Special Purpose Low Lethality Anti Terrorist (SPLLAT) Munitions. Commonly (and sometimes incorrectly) called ', Stun Grenades", 'Flash-Bangs' or 'Flash-Crashes', these unique life-saving munitions not only provide a decisive tactical advantage to the arresting officers, but have often saved the criminal's lives as well as any hostages and/or innocent bystanders, including the police themselves. When a properly selected SPLLAT Munition is utilized correctly, even the most violent and dangerous armed felon can be instantly rendered incapable of effectively resisting capture. Since the perpetrator is instantly, but only temporarily, incapacitated he cannot shoot at the police, so, in turn, they do not have to use deadly force to effect his capture. Also, due to the instant incapacitation effect, the criminal will be unable to shoot any hostages present. An added benefit to all concerned will be the dangers caused to innocent bystanders by stray bullets whizzing through walls, down alleys and across streets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional and nontraditional impact weapons are described, and their offensive and defensive uses are outlined. Legal and moral aspects are considered as well as tactical aspects of police self-defense. The weapons considered are nightsticks or batons, short billies, saps, combination impact weapons, the yawara and riot sticks, sap gloves and palm saps, and the nunchaku. Nontraditional impact weapons considered are the sidearm, flashlight, handcuffs, and makeshift impact weapons. The nature and use techniques of police impact weapons are discussed along with the psychology of relying on impact weapons, the tactics to be employed before and during their use, and methods of training in the use of the weapons. Legal and moral factors, including civil liability, are reviewed. Parameters of lethal force are discussed. The final section provides practical information on the application and use of impact weapons. Suggestions are presented for methods of carrying the weapons in the vehicle, on the person, and in belt carriers. The proper time to draw the impact weapon is discussed as well as the parts of the body which can be struck to effectively stop an attacker. Techniques to use in the case of an attack by several unarmed opponents are also outlined. Aspects of footwork and uses and complications involved in using the sleeper hold are considered. The text offers instructions for home practice of impact weapon techniques. Photographs are included.

Download or read book Defense Industries written by Pelagio Castelo Branco and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-10-13 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The state of the art in the area of security related civil science and technology concerning energetic materials and munitions is of pressing importance at the present time, because 10 years after the end of the cold war, in many countries in east and west, huge stockpiles of munitions still await destruction. The safety behavior of munitions and their energetic material is the determining factor for all precautionary measures for the protection of environment and population. The probability of a catastrophic reaction of munitions and their energetic components will be so more likely, the closer the munitions are to the end of their life time. Residues and undetected ordnance, recycling, destruction of ammunition and depletion or reuse of energetic materials will either cause more or less damage to environment. Scientific research and development have the aim to increase performance of munitions on one side and to improve safety in relation to unpredictable events on the other side. The impact on the environment by the production and normal use of munitions and their residues after use will acquire an increasing importance in environmental awareness. The excellent technical presentations were classified in five Groups, according to the technical programme. The "Introduction to the subject; Methods, tests and application; Insensitive and "green" munitions; Storage and transportation; and Demilitarisation and recycling" sessions, were closed by a final and general interesting discussion among participants.
Download or read book The Attribute based Evaluation ABE of Less than lethal Extended range Impact Munitions written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When local police and military departments consider the procurement of less-than- lethal, extended-range impact munitions, there are only the manufacturer's specifications and performance characteristics upon which to base a "buy or not buy" decision. This report, co-authored by the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department (LASD) and Penn State University's Applied Research Laboratory (ARL), is a preliminary evaluation of off-the-shelf less-than-lethal munitions that will allow law enforcement officials a comparative basis for determining what munition is best suited to meet their requirements. Less-than-lethal munition types were donated by various manufacturers and, over a two-day period, fired at a ballistic impact measurement device (pendulum plate) by LASD marksmen. A team of professionals with significant less-than-lethal weapon experience from both LASD and ARL characterized the munitions. All the munitions were assessed for accuracy and imparted momentum.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides a hands-on approach to demilitarization and environmental aspects of energetic materials and munitions This book gives an overview of the environmental impact of the production, use, and cleanup of energetic materials and munitions. It provides scientists, engineers, environmental specialists, and users with the understanding of environmental issues for munitions and of the ways to improve design and manage potential risks. It covers the various aspects of how chemical properties influence fate, transport, and toxicity of new formulations and prescribes tools for reducing or alleviating environmental risks. In addition, it discusses pyrotechnics and the problem of dealing with munitions underwater. Chapters in Energetic Materials and Munitions: Life Cycle Management, Environmental Impact and Demilitarization look at demilitarization in general, as well as in the future. Topics covered include logistics, costs, and management; life cycle analysis and management; and greener munitions. Another introduces readers to the "One Health" approach in the design of sustainable munition compounds. Following that, readers are taught about land assessment for munitions-related contamination in military live-fire training. The book also examines the development and integration of environmental, safety, and occupational health information. -Brings together in one source expertise and in-depth information on the current and future state of how we handle the production, use, and demilitarization of explosives and weaponry -A handy reference for experienced practitioners, as well as for training young professionals in the field -Every chapter contains real-life examples and proposes future directions for the field Energetic Materials and Munitions: Life Cycle Management, Environmental Impact and Demilitarization is an important book for explosives specialists, pyrotechnicians, materials scientists, military authorities, safety officers, health officers, and chemical engineers.
