Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SPAI) recently showcased new high-performance body armor plates and a ballistic shield at SHOT Show 2026 through its wholly owned ballistics protection unit, Safe-Pro USA LLC. The company exhibited at the annual Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade Show in Las Vegas, an event that attracts more than 55,000 industry professionals globally to view new products and form professional connections.
The products displayed included American-made, high-performance, lightweight, and ultra-thin hard armor plates. These plates are currently undergoing certification testing by the U.S. Department of Justice for compliance with the latest ballistic standard, NIJ 0101.07. The company also debuted its new RAPID series shield, designed as a quick-response, lightweight, and mobile solution for law enforcement. This shield is smaller and more mobile than traditional options, making it suitable for use in confined spaces or during high-risk traffic stops.
CEO Dan Erdberg stated the company was excited to unveil its next-generation ballistic protective solutions at one of the industry's most widely attended events, providing an opportunity to engage with existing and prospective government customers who can access the company's GSA contract vehicle.

Participating in the SHOT Show represents one of several initiatives Safe Pro Group is undertaking to expand marketing, sales, and product development activities. This expansion is in direct response to increasing demand for ballistic protection solutions, particularly those manufactured in the United States. The company's broader mission involves developing AI-powered security and defense solutions, including computer vision technology for analyzing drone footage to identify explosive objects, alongside its ballistic protection products like body armor, plates, and shields.
