BALLISTIC BLANKETS

Trusted nationwide by elite bomb squads, EOD teams, SWAT, law enforcement, military personnel, security guards, and first responders, this portable, lightweight blast blanket converts chaotic spaces into survivable zones, faster and more flexibly than a traditional rigid ballistic shield.

  • Certified: NIJ 0108.01 - Level IIIA protection
  • Built for the field: Cordura® outer shell, flame-resistant coating, tear-resistant, waterproof
  • Mobility: Rolls up with secure straps and rugged nylon carry handles for true rapid deployment

MISSION-DRIVEN PURPOSE

RTS Tactical designs for one objective: preserve life and create tactical options in high-risk environments. As a high-quality explosive containment blanket / fragmentation barrier, the Bomb Ballistic Fragmentation Blanket helps contain shrapnel from IEDs and suspect devices, provides temporary body shield coverage during entry and breach, and forms a mobile barrier to protect corridors, doorways, vehicles, and staging areas.

From an EOD tech setting a disruptor to a law enforcement officer moving a wounded civilian, this tactical blanket brings protection to the point of need.

CORE FEATURES AND MATERIALS

  • NIJ Level IIIA ballistic blanket construction engineered to stop common handgun rounds and limit fragmentation effects
  • Flame-resistant coating and waterproof finishes withstand sparks, weather, and decontamination routines
  • Reinforced seams, secure roll-up straps, and heavy-duty nylon carry handles enable fast repositioning and compact storage
  • Lightweight relative to rigid shields and optimized for rapid staging or multi-operator handling

MULTI-MISSION USE CASES

  • Bomb squads / EOD: Essential bomb squad gear to contain fragmentation threats during assessment, disruption, or post-blast operations.
  • Law enforcement and SWAT: Shield a police officer or team member with a portable bulletproof blanket during dynamic entry or active shooter responses.
  • Courthouses, airports, and federal buildings: Temporary blast-resistant shield and rapid hardening of choke points.
  • Vehicle staging: Configure across doors or cargo areas as a portable blast shield for cars and trucks.
  • Industrial and manufacturing: Add a blast-resistant layer around hazardous processes to protect personnel and equipment.
  • Schools and public spaces: Deployable bullet-resistant blanket solutions to protect egress routes or create covered zones.

(Note: Our ballistic blankets are designed to stop pistol calibers and limit fragmentation. This blanket is not rated for rifle threats. For protection against rifle rounds, use rifle-rated shields or tactical partitions.)

DEPLOYMENT AND PORTABILITY

Designed to outperform rigid alternatives, the Level IIIA blanket can be unrolled and secured in minutes. It’s easily deployed and staged by a single operator, making it ideal for fast-moving or high-risk environments. The blanket can be draped, stood upright, tensioned across frames, or affixed to improvised supports to form a reliable fragmentation barrier. When the task is complete, it compresses quickly for transport or storage.

CERTIFICATION AND TRUST

The blanket is made in the USA and manufactured under ISO 9001 & BA 9000 quality systems for repeatable performance and traceable documentation. That combination of certification and real-world usage by bomb squads, federal units, and municipal agencies gives procurement officers confidence that the blanket will perform when it matters most.

SIZING AND SUPPORT

The blanket is offered in a range of standard sizes made to cover doors, corridors, and vehicle openings. Custom sizes are also available to meet unique portal dimensions, vehicle mounts, or installation constraints, just simply include measurements with your inquiry. RTS Tactical supports expedited quotes, bulk ordering for law enforcement agencies and departments, and technical documentation to simplify specifications and approvals.
