Security
Our mission at FN Herstal is to design, develop, manufacture and supply a complete range of solutions based on small calibre firearms with their associated ammunition, and Less Lethal systems with one goal in mind: to meet and exceed the requirements and expectations of Law Enforcement and Security agencies, and Special Units worldwide, today and in the future.
Less Lethal
While for most of its existence FN Herstal has been involved with traditional firearms, for both defence and security purposes, in the early 2000s the company identified a growing demand for a less lethal capability. This was targeted at police and other public security forces who required a capability that lay between the baton and the firearm.
Accordingly, FN Herstal developed the FN 303® less lethal solution that relies on a dedicated launcher combined with an impact projectile. Together, they deliver a sufficiently dissuasive level of pain within the impact zone to temporarily neutralize a suspect with minimum risk of causing severe or lethal injury.

Ammunition
The performance of ammunition not only affects a weapon’s effectiveness but also its safety and reliability. FN Herstal, as a firearms manufacturer and the original designer of the most widely used NATO standard calibres, is uniquely placed to ensure perfect compatibility between these two fundamental elements: firearms and ammunition.
