Special Forces vs. Evolving Threats: When Tactical Precision Demands Advanced CBRN Detection
Proengin

In a world of rising instability and hybrid warfare, special forces remain the frontline of precision and adaptability. Whether operating behind enemy lines, conducing covert missions, engaging in high-risk or neutralizing high-value targets, these elite units face environments where every second counts — and equipment cannot fail.
1. Operating in the Shadows: The Growing Challenges for Special Forces
Special operations thrive in complexity: denied areas, rugged terrain, and mission profiles that demand both stealth and speed. The modern battlefield is no longer defined by borders — it’s urban, remote, unknown, and unpredictable.
Among the growing threats, CBRN risks are no longer theoretical. In addition to battlefield-grade agents, terrorist groups now weaponize industrial chemicals and lethal substances like fentanyl, turning urban site into potential hot zones. Operators must be ready to detect, react, and adapt in real time.
In these conditions, detection is not just about knowing — it’s about detecting a larger game, with high sensitivity and rapid few seconds. Whether it’s urban warfare, desert operations, or jungle infiltration, the modern battlefield has no rules — only variables.
2. Mission-Critical Equipment for Mission-Critical Moments
Today’s elite units need more than robust gear — they need smart, field-proven, and intuitive solutions that integrate seamlessly into the operator’s flow.
That’s why Proengin designs detection tools around real mission constraints:
- Hands-free operation for maximum mobility during infiltration or patrol
- Furtive mode with silent alerts for total discretion – several alarm modes for all types of missions
- Continuous detection of gas and aerosol threats — even on the move
- Fast deployment with instant startup and no warm-up time
- Rugged build for extremes: from -32°C to +71°C, resistant to shock, sand, and salt fog
- No library, no filter, no calibration
- Integrable with drone, robot, suitcase or forces gear
- Portative, more compact and more adaptable FPD detection technology
3. AP4C+: Elite Detection for Elite Forces
At the heart of Proengin’s CBRN capabilities is the AP4C+, our most advanced handheld chemical detector — engineered for special operations.
Renowned globally for its reliability and sensitivity, the AP4C+ offers:
- Simultaneous detection of CWAs, TICs, NTAs, Novichoks, and opioids like fentanyl
- Dual-phase detection: gas and aerosol threats in real time
- Lightweight and compact format, ideal for dismounted operators or vehicle integration
- Hands-free wearing system with discreet alerting
- Minimal maintenance with maximum uptime
Whether deployed in urban raids, border surveillance, or crisis response, the AP4C+ delivers trusted performance in the most volatile scenarios.
4. Supporting Those Who Go First
When rules of engagement evolve, CBRN readiness must stay one step ahead. Proengin has spent decades working alongside military and special forces to co-develop solutions that match operational reality — not lab theory.
Our commitment is simple:
Equip the tip of the spear with tools built to endure, detect, and protect.
