The Police forces FIER range

Police forces Projectiles

General common features to all FIER projectiles for the police forces: 

The FIER bullet range for the police forces is adapted to the 12x70 2"3/4 or 12x76 3" gauge weapons (Magnum), pump-action shotgun or semiautomatic type with smooth or rifled bore barrels.
The projectiles have a high speed between 415 and 540 m/s and remain united throughout their aerial trajectory. The release of the internal projectile only occurs when it touches a hard body.
The kinetic energy of the inside projectile is multiplied by 2.5 at impact. That double/triple effect is obtained thanks to the composition of the internal projectile released during impact, which acts as a shock dart. The central arrow and the mass provoke a high neutralizing shock effect power. Both parts of which the materials are different act together or individually according to the resistance of the touched target which becomes or not the third effect. The FIER projectiles hang excellently on the target even with a big incidence angle, this is due to 3 features :

• The tip of the central arrow 
• The plastic container with multiple grooves which grabs onto the obstacle's shape during tangential shots and guides the penetration of the projectile through its central chimney 
• The inner bore of the container. It is a security guarantee because it reduces the risk of ricochets
  

The excellent precision obtained in all the barrels is due to the association :

• Of a heavy mass combined with a light casing 
• Of a high and regular speed 
• Of a perfect adaptation of the back part of the projectile to the barrel during the shot.
  

Securing the use, the FIER bullet reduces risks for the environment off-target :

• In the final part of its trajectory, the inside projectile can not be released from the container during an unforeseen impact due to insufficient energy. It then behaves like a mono-block projectile of which the frontal section is 275 mm2. The projectile undergoes considerable braking, leading to a significant reduction in range.
  

In 12 gauge only for pump-action shotgun or semiautomatic.

P.P.A.

Perforating Anti-Personnel Projectile

It is a variation of the MSFA projectile with greater lesional power, the hammer separating in a controlled manner into 4 petals at impact.

P.A.R.

Reinforced Action Projectile

This projectile meets a double imperative : strong penetration coefficient, including shielding, limiting dangerous effects beyond an average distance. Depending on the reloading, the features can go up to: Anti-personnel effect without ballistic protection: 150 m; Anti-personnel effect behind class II bulletproof vest: 70 m; Perforating effect: 11 mm perforation of steel at a distance of 12.5 m; Sub lethal at 250m.

P.A.L.

Limited Action Projectile

This projectile meets a double imperative : Behaviour differentiated according to the resistance of the target (soft or hard), limitation of the dangerous effects beyond an average distance. In the case of a soft target, an individual without protection, the projectile, at 25 meters, penetrates completely over around 10 cm. In the case of a hard target, the type 2 ballistic protections of an individual are pierced and the individual neutralized at 25 m. The projectile is no longer lethal beyond 150 m.

M.S.T.D.F

Cash Transport Special Ammunition

Adaptation of the projectile PAL to the specific conditions for the cash transport in armoured vans. By making the arrow of the hammer united, the penetration of the personal protections is reduced, ensuring the safety of the conveyors in the case where weapons are used.

M.S.F.A.

Army Force Special Ammunition

Specially developed to fight against protected targets at medium distance or in urban environment. Excellent perforation of personal ballistic protections and metal screens. High dispersion of kinetic energy and optimization of the momentum transmission in soft materials.
