Performance Characteristics
• The BIP ammunition exploits patented technologies and advanced engineering solutions, which provide full effectiveness in a variety of enforcement situations
• The BIP is designed to provide an alternative to previous blunt impact solutions such as foam, sponge and rubber bullets
• SDI’s Blunt Impact Technology enables the projectile to engage the target with higher kinetic energy while meeting recognized safety standards, i.e. ballistic gel and human effects testing
Safety
The BIP achieves enhanced efficacy and provides greater freedom of action for law enforcement and military forces.
BIP Upon Impact with Target
• The expansion of the head enables force to be applied to an increased body impact area. The impact covers a large surface area of nerve endings, creating increased pain while dispersing the inertia. This achieves successful pain compliance, while making it safe on the subject.
• BIP head and body disfigure after impact making it difficult for rioters to throw back at police
