Mobile Fragmentation & Blast Shield
Bomb Shield FPS-2
Bomb Shield FPS-2
The Bomb Shield FPS-2 is a mobile fragmentation and blast shield that helps protect EOD and IEDD personnel when they have to work close to a suspected device. Designed to be quickly positioned between the operator and the threat, it provides a robust protective barrier against fragments and blast effects while still allowing the technician to see, move and work.
Compact enough for use in corridors, entries and vehicle lanes, yet large enough to offer meaningful coverage, the FPS-2 fits naturally into modern EOD, search and tactical response procedures in urban environments.
Key benefits
- Enhanced personal protection: Provides a dedicated fragmentation and blast barrier between the operator and the suspect device, reducing exposure to primary and secondary fragments.
- Mobile cover on demand: Mounted on a stable base with handles and/or wheels so it can be pushed, pulled or carried into position quickly by a small team.
- Supports safer approach: Allows EOD technicians to advance towards and work on a device from behind cover, instead of being fully exposed during critical stages of the render-safe procedure.
- Flexible deployment locations: Suitable for use inside buildings, in hallways, stairwells, doorways and loading bays, as well as in open street or vehicle environments.
- Multi-role protection: Can be used to shield other responders, bystanders or key infrastructure when an immediate protective barrier is needed.
- Rugged and low-maintenance: Built from durable ballistic composite materials with a tough outer cover, keeping maintenance demands low and service life high.
Typical applications
- Approach and investigation of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and suspicious packages in streets, car parks, buildings and transport hubs.
- Providing cover for EOD personnel during placement of disruptors, firing cables and hook-and-line attachments.
- Protection for police and tactical teams during high-risk entries where explosive threats are suspected.
- Temporary shielding of doors, windows, critical assets or access points during bomb threat incidents.
- Training scenarios where realistic use of mobile blast and fragment shields needs to be rehearsed in line with SOPs.
Design & configuration
The FPS-2 is designed as a practical, easy-to-handle shield system that supports real-world operations:
- High-protection shield body: Multi-layer ballistic composite construction engineered to help mitigate the effects of blast and fragmentation from small to medium explosive threats.
- Operator-focused ergonomics: Handle and support layout designed so operators can manoeuvre and position the shield while remaining behind cover as much as possible.
- Stable base or frame: A robust support structure helps keep the shield stable when stationary, including when used on uneven surfaces or in confined spaces.
- Compact footprint: Proportions chosen to balance coverage with manoeuvrability through doorways, corridors and tight indoor spaces.
- Transport and storage: Designed for storage in EOD vehicles, depots or response centres and for rapid deployment by a small team when required.
