The New Threats
Previously a front line of armed forces, one
on each side, signified conflict situations. Reliable intelligence
created best possible information about expected threats and hopefully
there was enough time available to move into safe and protected
areas or in alternative ways find protection.
Nowadays the world has changed. Traditional conflicts
may not exist any longer.
The threats may appear from extremist groups
in our surroundings, which, in many cases are difficult to separate
from “you and me”.
Media and media experts continuously alert us
about terror groups, which have capabilities of mass destroying
weapons. The fanaticism behind those terror groups encourages them
to use all available methods.
Nuclear
Biological
Chemical
Our society is built upon large population centers
and individually they may be acting as targets for next terror attack.
We are left with alternatives:
• Stay away from areas of higher risks.
• To provide and have at hand, personnel protective equipment
(including NBC respirators), which allows you to escape from contaminated
areas.
The A4, NBC respirator, provides you with personnel
protection and security to escape from contaminated areas.
Warning:
Even with best possible protection,
never stay in a contaminated area. |
