WHY WE MADE IT

At RTS Tactical, we build solutions for those who refuse to compromise on safety—the officers and tactical teams who put their lives on the line with every entry. The RTS Tactical Lead Entry Ballistic Shield NIJ 0101.07 RF1 was developed to eliminate weaknesses found in traditional shields, ensuring maximum protection in high-risk situations. We saw how bolted viewports created vulnerable points, how construction adhesives degraded under heat, and how outdated designs limited maneuverability. So, we engineered a first-of-its-kind boltless viewport system, reinforcing durability without sacrificing visibility. With a lightweight, high-performance build, RF1-rated protection, and a Tri-Grip handle for superior control, this shield isn’t just another piece of gear—it’s a tactical advantage for those leading the charge. Because when it’s your job to go first, you deserve the best protection possible.
