TYR Tactical®, a company based out of Peoria, Arizona is excited to showcase its newest product line at the 2023 DSEI event held in London this September.

The Special Mission Series line of products integrates TYR Tactical’s expert knowledge with world class engineering to develop innovative and advanced solutions designed to enhance user performance and survivability. One of the products being featured is the TYR Tactical® Patent Pending Shield Load Carriage System (SLCS). With its articulating arms and sling attachment, this innovative system enables the weight of a ballistic shield to be distributed to the hips of the user, reducing the stress on one’s back and shoulders. This ground-breaking design allows for effortless movement and swift maneuvering while maintaining optimal levels of protection and efficiency.

The Special Mission Series also features new Level III+ Ballistic Shields and Hard Armor Plates. These Patent Pending SMU Hard Armor Plates and Ballistic Shields have been designed to maximize the performance of its materials to a level that no other company is able to do. TYR Tactical® demonstrated this by inviting champion shooter Daniel Horner to come and test the shield this summer, where he shot 100 Green Tip 5.56 x 45mm rounds into one of the new ballistic shields without penetration.
