Homeland Security Group Announces Lightweight Ballistics Order
Spall Liners Enhance Protection for Personnel in Light Armored Vehicles
Homeland Security Group International (PINKSHEETS: HMSG) announced today that working in concert with their Joint Venture Partner Protective Solutions LLC, the company has received orders for Anti-Spall blankets from the US Marine Corps.
HMSG Ballistics Division has been working closely with West Coast Marine units in order to provide additional ballistic protection against improvised explosive devices (IEDs) for armored vehicles.
"Our product provides a lightweight solution that does not affect the vehicle's suspension or mobility," commented HMSG CEO Colonel Jeffrey Powers, USMC (Ret). "While light armored vehicles in theater are already equipped with the anti-spall blankets, we are ensuring that vehicles deploying from stateside have the same amount of protection. We are also in the process of providing lightweight solutions for other combat vehicles," concluded Powers.
