37 mm Aerial Burst Pepper

Wide-Area Deployment for Area Denial and Crowd Dispersal

The 37mm Aerial Burst Pepper is a less-lethal munition designed for the deployment of long-range OC (oleoresin capsicum) powder. This round bursts mid-air, releasing a concentrated cloud of organic pepper across a wide radius. 

It is highly effective in riot control, protest dispersal, and perimeter defence where controlling multiple individuals at once is necessary without engaging in direct contact.

This round is used with any 37mm munitions launcher and is best suited for instances or scenarios where distance, coverage, and area denial are the priorities. 

The pepper used is organic and safe but causes intense irritation to the eyes, nose, and respiratory system, encouraging rapid dispersal and compliance without lasting harm.

Built for Tactical Crowd Dispersal
The 37mm Aerial Burst Pepper is for law enforcement teams who need to control or clear large groups without physical engagement.  When fired, the round travels a set distance and then bursts overhead, releasing a dense cloud of pepper powder over a broad area.
This round is used in:
  • Public disorder and riots
  • Hostile protester management
  • Perimeter control for government buildings
  • Roadblocks and checkpoint enforcement
  • Border control and security zones
Its effectiveness lies in volume and coverage, not force. It offers a humane and efficient tool when verbal commands are no longer effective and minimal physical confrontation is needed.
Safe and Organic Formula
The pepper formula used in this round is natural and organic, extracted from high-grade oleoresin capsicum. It causes:
  • Temporary eye and skin irritation
  • Short-term breathing discomfort
  • Disorientation and loss of focus
This temporary discomfort causes affected individuals to move away from the cloud, allowing officers to regain control or secure a perimeter with minimal resistance.
The key features and benefits include:
  • Area Coverage: Designed for wide dispersal rather than direct impact.
  • Mid-Air Deployment: Releases OC pepper powder from mid-air for maximum effectiveness.
  • Universal Fit: Compatible with standard 37mm munitions launchers.
  • Instant Area Denial: Creates immediate control without causing injury.
  • Safe Deployment: Suitable for outdoor and semi-confined urban settings.
The round is compatible with all standard 37mm munitions launchers. It performs effectively when launched at a high arc, allowing it to detonate above a crowd or enclosed area.
Once the round activates, the OC cloud quickly spreads in a radius, impacting anyone in the exposure zone.
The rounds are for single-use, and agencies typically carry multiple rounds for sustained control during prolonged crowd events.
