ABU DHABI (Sputnik) — Russia plans new non-lethal weapons supplies to law enforcement agencies in the United States, including the Osa ("Wasp") handgun, its developer told Sputnik on Monday.
"US law enforcement agencies are showing considerable interest in Tecmash group's products, particularly the Osa multifunctional system of civilian non-lethal weapons," Machine Engineering Technologies Holding (Tecmash) General Director Sergei Rusakov said.
Osa is a weapon system that includes a four- or two-cartridge break-action barrel-less pistol and a broad range of special cartridges with an aluminum case and electrical pulse firing. The system is designated for police officers to use in self-defense and for personal protection by private individuals.
