Military

Defence and security of the nation state is something that all Governments and their armed forces take extremely seriously, whether it be protecting their national Borders, combating insurgency, dealing with national emergencies, conducting military operations at home or abroad, or fighting national and international terrorism.

Members of the armed forces operate in an inherently unsafe environment. As quickly as defence solutions are produced innovative methods of negating them are developed. It is essential that Military personnel are equipped with the best cutting-edge defensive and protective equipment.

The nature of warfare has changed dramatically over the past quarter of a century, and less conventional methods of combat mean that alternative solutions must be found to protect soldiers and support personnel.

In all conflict zones ballistic weapons represent an ever-present threat to human life and property. As well as conventional weaponry, the threat from Improvised Explosive Devices (I.E.D's) is now a serious and sustained danger for troops and convoys in conflict zones around the world. Blast Protection solutions are available for vehicles, Buildings and machinery.

Personnel and Convey protection is provided by a range of Armoured Vehicles, Body Armour and Night-Vision Equipment - including Monoculars, Binoculars and Rifle Scopes. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can travel ahead of a convoy to seek out potential danger-spots and identify enemy movement to allow convoys to be safely guided away from these threats. Westminster also offers a wide range of Covert Tracking and Surveillance Systems.

Westminster provides a comprehensive range of products and services for IED detection and disposal together with RF Jamming solutions to prevent the remote triggering of devices that are routinely responsible for attacks on military patrols often leading to loss of life. Westminster can supply specialised Jammers for wide-band frequency protection and systems which are either fixed (for checkpoints etc), vehicle based, carried and even worn as backpacks for platoon protection in hostile areas.

Westminster also provides a range of Bomb, Explosive and Mine Detection and Clearance solutions in order to clear mined areas and provide protection for both Military personnel and local civilians. Working with strategic partner, the International School for Security and Explosives Education (ISSEE), Westminster also offers a world-class centre of excellence for training courses in Explosives, Security Search and I.E.D. Disposal.

Westminster provides secure Communication Solutions which are vital in conflict zones or peace-keeping operations together with Control & Command and C4I systems and solutions.

Westminster also has a wide range of advanced solutions for Border Security and surveillance, protection of marine assets including Sonar and Diver Disruption systems, Intelligence Gathering and Interception, Covert Tracking and protection of Military bases and assets - much of which is only available to recognised military customers.
