Townsville, QLD – March 2021. Huntsman Defence (Huntsman), a supplier of equipment, services and solutions to Government, announced today the delivery of Oceania Defence Suppressors under a contract to supply a Police Training Unit.
The Oceania Defence HyFlow suppressors were selected to increase officer safety and improve the learning environment with minimal disruption to the performance and life-cycle cost of the host weapon system.
“Huntsman is excited to deliver the Oceania Defence suppressors to the police training unit,” Huntsman Defence Managing Director Rob Woods said.
“This contract is the first that we have delivered since the forming of the partnership with Oceania Defence. We look forward to the end-user feedback as they experience the unique benefits that the Oceania Defence HyFlow Suppressors provide.”
“The delivered HyFlow suppressor variant was optimized to the calibre, application and end-user requirement.”
Oceania Defence suppressors are manufactured in New Zealand. The manufacturer employs world first, innovative, 3D selective laser melted technology. The employment of patented 3D selective laser melted suppressor technology enables the manufacture of a unique monolithic suppressor with integral baffle structure as a one-piece design for best strength-to-weight ratio.
