The 12-Gauge Munitions are designed to deny access into/out of an area to individuals, move individuals through an area,
and suppress individuals. This technology has the potential to support multiple missions including:
- Force protection
- Checkpoints

These munitions are shotgun rounds that are designed to deliver blunt trauma effects to individuals. Multiple Services
currently employ these rounds. Different types of 12-gauge munitions are available such as stingball rounds, fin stabilized
