Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SPAI) recently showcased new high-performance ballistic protection products through its wholly owned unit Safe-Pro USA LLC at SHOT Show 2026 in Las Vegas. The company displayed ultra-thin, ultra-lightweight hard armor plates currently undergoing certification testing by the U.S. Department of Justice for compliance with the latest NIJ 0101.07 ballistic standard. This development addresses increasing demand for American-made ballistic protection solutions, particularly as law enforcement and security agencies seek more advanced equipment.
The company also introduced the new RAPID series shield, designed as a quick-response, lightweight, and mobile solution for law enforcement. This shield is smaller and more maneuverable than traditional options, making it suitable for use in confined spaces or during high-risk traffic stops. Safe-Pro USA brings more than 30 years of combined experience in the U.S. defense industry to the development of these ultra-premium bullet and blast-resistant protection products.
Safe Pro CEO Dan Erdberg emphasized the importance of the SHOT Show platform, stating that it provides "a great opportunity to engage with existing and prospective government customers who can access our GSA contract vehicle." The SHOT Show (Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade Show) attracts more than 55,000 industry professionals annually and serves as a key venue for product launches and industry networking.

The certification process with the Department of Justice ensures these products meet rigorous safety standards before deployment to law enforcement agencies across the country.
