US12571614 - Anti-ballistic barrier with extendable retention system

An anti-ballistic barrier system with a plurality of support mounts and an anti-ballistic shield configured to extend across a targeted area. The plurality of support mounts is configured to couple the shield to a support structure adjacent the targeted area. A plurality of extendable connectors extends between the anti-ballistic shield and the plurality of support mounts. A polyester shield cover may extend over the anti-ballistic shield. The plurality of extendable connectors may be positioned at regular intervals around a perimeter of the shield and may be formed of a material having an elongation percentage property of at least 100%. The anti-ballistic shield may be movable between a retracted position in which a majority of the targeted area is exposed and an extended position in which the anti-ballistic shield extends across a majority of the targeted area.

US12546135 - Ballistic barrier panel for energy transmission equipment

The system comprises a mounting frame suspended above a ground level. The system comprises a modular panel configured to removably attach to the mounting frame and removably interconnect with other modular panels to form a barrier. The modular panel comprises multiple ballistic sub-panels that are configured to removably attach to the modular panel and interconnect with each other to increase the surface area of the modular panel and where each ballistic sub-panel is constructed of a ballistic-resistant material. The system comprises a ballistic detection system comprising at least one sensor configured to detect a ballistic event. The ballistic detection system comprises a notification system configured to communicate a notification to an emergency service in response to the ballistic event. The ballistic detection system comprises a controller configured to determine the severity of the ballistic event and activate the notification system and a power supply.
