RTS Tactical proudly partnered with the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) to deliver rifle-rated Mini Shields and carrier systems, placing life-saving protection into their patrol vehicles across the state. This initiative
ensures that FHP troopers have immediate access to rifle-rated protection during life-threatening scenarios, without waiting for backup.
In the past, rifle-rated protection was typically limited to SWAT teams or tactical response units, gear that had to be requested, transported, and deployed long after the first officer arrived on scene. This often meant that the troopers who faced the initial threat were doing so without the level of rifle protection they truly needed.
That changed with this initiative. Now, FHP vehicles carry rifle-rated Mini Shields for protection as part of the new standard. It’s a major shift in frontline readiness, turning patrol vehicles into fully equipped
response units. Giving officers the ability to act with confidence, precision, and protection from the moment they step out of the vehicle.
The RTS Tactical Mini Shield is compact, lightweight, and quick to deploy, making it the ideal solution for traffic stops, roadside confrontations, and active threat scenarios. RTS Tactical teamed up with FHP’s in-house trainers, integrating the shield into daily use protocols. The Florida Highway Patrol is now more protected than ever before.
This collaboration represents more than just a delivery of equipment, it’s a blueprint for the future of law enforcement protection. One where high-level gear isn’t reserved for the few, but carried by every officer standing on the front line.
