In the previous articles, I shared with you three kinds of anti-riot launchers used by the Velociraptor team in the operation: Fadelu inch semi-riot launchers, Pepperball pepper ball launchers and PennArms L140-4 40mm anti-riot launchers. These three launchers provide PTU and STS with the ability to reject the action of rioters at a long distance. These barrel type launchers use gunpowder gas and compressed gas as the power to launch various low-lethal munitions to suppress and disperse the gathered rioters. However, if these launchers are still used in close contact with the rioters or face to face, it is very likely to cause serious or permanent damage to the rioters and cause excessive use of force. Therefore, batons, shields and tear gas sprays are the best choices in close proximity.
Here, we omit the baton and shield, and mainly explain to you the tear spray used by STS Speedo Team in the execution of its mission. Tear spray, also known as pepper spray, anti wolf spray and so on, is no stranger to fans who pay attention to police equipment or personal defense. The working principle of tear spray is that it uses the compressed gas contained in the pressure vessel to push the medicine filled in the container, through the nozzle of the ejector, spray water, fog, foam, gel like medicine to the target, and stimulate the skin Respiratory tract, mucous membrane, etc., produce burning and tingling sensation, and shed tears and tears for a short time, which will block their breathing and vision, and stop their illegal behaviors.
The main components of tear spray are mainly two kinds: natural OC preparation and chemically synthesized CN and CS preparation. Both drugs will cause serious irritation to human skin, respiratory tract and mucous membrane, but will not cause serious or permanent injury. After a long time of development and application, tear gas spray is still effective in controlling mild violence or those who gather.
After a brief background introduction, let's move on to the main topic and look at the types of tear gas sprays equipped by the current STS Velong team. Due to their different tasks, the STS Velong team is equipped with two main types of tear gas sprays, one is a hand-held canned spray, the CURD'S POLICE RIOT 400ML spray from IDC system, Switzerland, and the other is a heavy backpackable CURD'S POLICE RW 07 LINE large anti riot sprayer.
