When it comes to defense systems, you want the best. Tactical teams and military forces are consistently faced with combat missions, disaster response and humanitarian initiatives that require clear communications and the ability to quickly employ escalation of force (EOF).
That’s where the LRAD (Long Range Acoustic Device) makes its mark. The only acoustic hailing device (AHD) that meets all requirements of the U.S. military, this system helps improve operational effectiveness with clear live or recorded voice messages for any operational scenario.
LRAD Effects
Defense teams have a powerful tool in the LRAD. It can emit a 150-decibel beam of sound which can be compared to standing in front of a jet engine. Teams can transmit spoken messages across long distances, and control crowds or threats. Usually sold to law enforcement, military or commercial security companies, it has the nickname of “sound cannon.” Teams who use this system usually wear LRAD earplugs to keep their operations going while circumventing national threats or assisting in search-and-rescue operations. With the system being able to emit different decibels of sound, LRAD countermeasures have proven to be very effective.
LRAD Cost
The LRAD cost can vary, depending on the unit. While many people may think this device is one big unit that is consistently moved from place to place, it is actually a lot of little devices, which could be likened to a Mini LRAD, or loudspeaker. What’s unique about this system is that it can emit sound that will break an eardrum, or sound to implement crowd control measures that won’t hurt hearing at all. It is a very effective tool that can be adapted to any situation.
