Explosive Ordnance Disposal Protective Shield

Explosive Ordnance Disposal Protective Shields are specialized tools used by explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) personnel to protect themselves from the potential hazards of explosive devices. These shields are designed to provide a barrier between the EOD technician and the explosive device, minimizing the risk of injury or damage.

These protective shields are part of the supply class Surface Use Explosive Ordnance Disposal Tools And Equipment, which includes various tools and equipment specifically designed for EOD operations on the surface. They fall under the supply group Ammunition And Explosives, which encompasses all types of ammunition and explosive materials used by military and law enforcement agencies.

The Explosive Ordnance Disposal Protective Shields are typically made of strong and durable materials, such as ballistic-grade steel or composite materials, to withstand the impact of explosions. They are designed to be portable and lightweight, allowing EOD technicians to maneuver and position them effectively during operations.

These shields often feature transparent windows or viewing ports, allowing the EOD technician to observe and assess the explosive device while remaining protected. Some shields may also have additional features, such as built-in lighting systems or communication devices, to enhance the technician's capabilities in the field.

Overall, Explosive Ordnance Disposal Protective Shields are essential tools for EOD personnel, providing them with a crucial layer of protection while they work to neutralize and dispose of explosive devices safely.
