Counter Terrorism Efforts to Include Car Disruption Devices
According to couriermail.au, the crime-fighting list includes armoured vehicles that can withstand extreme fire power, plus vehicle-mounted electronic disruption devices that can stop vehicles in their tracks.
Counter-terrorism police are already using drones the size of flies to spy and gather intelligence on suspected jihadists. These devices could become some of the most critical tools police have in their terror-busting kit, especially as international lone wolves use vehicles to plough down crowds.
As well as a further $3 million for specialist sniper rifles, counter-terrorism police say they also need technology to stop an attack before it occurs. Surveillance such as Wi-Fi exploitation devices allows police to harvest data from a phone or laptop when a target walks past the device.
Also on the list is the Xaver 400 – a radar system that can detect people behind walls. With a detection range of 20m, it has the sensitivity to detect non-moving live objects. It also has wireless capability for remote monitoring and control.
