Developed for the Royal Ulster Constabulary as an intermediate shield to be deployed from lightly armoured vehicles.

The multi-purpose design of the shield allows for numerous tactics to be used, including group formations, typically with long and medium shields, individual protection for snatch squads, and violent man scenarios when used with straight arm C&R tactics.

This shield is the standard RUC pattern unit and utilizes a LEXAN POLYCARBOANTE 3mm thick front blade, for maximum user protection, and a 3mm thick backing panel in the same material for good visibility and vital body area protection. It has lightweight aluminum hook and loop handles with non-slip rubber grips for comfortable carry and secure hand grip in action. The backing panel has a shock resistant foam forearm protective pad and a moulded lip at the bottom to enable vertical as well as horizontal interlinking.

Fully interlocking with all Armadillo shields and capable of surviving extensive impact from thrown objects and edged weapons
