Franklin Exhibits DefenCell at DVD2008
Following the recent successful sale of DefenCell
to the Irish Defence Force, J & S Franklin will be exhibiting from
the company's stand number BI-5 at DVD2008 organised by the UK Ministry
of Defence.
DefenCell which is currently in service with the British Army in Afghanistan
and the Irish Defence Force in Chad, will be displayed on the stand as
a sangar defensive position, highlighting the flexibility and diversity
that DefenCell can offer as a force protection system.
Defencell is a cellular, rapidly deployable force protection system, that
can be used in a wide variety of military and civil defence roles. These
include walls, sangars, bunkers, roadways, vehicle barriers and flood
protection.
DefenCell's ballistic qualities have been established through extensive
independent testing by Advantica and full reports are available on request.
DefenCell offers a number of significant advantages over other Force Protection
Systems, notably it is one-man portable and deployable, its weight (being
up to 10 times lighter than comparable products), it requires 5 times
less transport volume, and being non-metallic with no cages or hinges,
there is no secondary shrapnel or communications interference.
DefenCell is also made in the UK.
'See us at DVD2008, Millbrook, Bedfordshire, 25th - 26th June 2008 on
stand number BI-5'
