While for most of its existence FN Herstal has been involved with traditional firearms, for both defence and security purposes, the company identified an opening in the market in the early 2000s for a less lethal capability. This was targeted at police and other public security forces who required a capability that lay between the baton and the firearm.
Accordingly, FN Herstal developed a family of impact projectiles that would deliver a sufficiently dissuasive level of pain within the impact zone to temporarily neutralize a suspect up to a range of 50 meters yet with minimum risk of causing a penetrating injury or collateral damage.
To continue to provide our customers with high added value solutions and meet tomorrow’s challenges, FN Herstal is looking for new talent at many levels of the organization.
