HomelandDefenseStocks.com Reports: Explosive Detection System Technologies – Intelligence Points To Increased Aviation Industry Terrorist Threats Including Hijacking and Bombing

POINT ROBERTS, WA, February 25th, 2024 – www.HomelandDefenseStocks.com (HDS) and www.BorderAndPortSecurity.com (BPS), investor news portals for the Homeland Defense and Security Sectors, are pleased to offer investors an exclusive report regarding the current use of, and demand for Explosive Detection Systems within the aviation Industry. Companies like Hawk Protection Systems, Inc. (OTC.PK: HWPR), Markland Technologies (OTCBB: MRKL), and Electronic Sensor Technology (OTCBB: ESNR) are all in the business of either developing or manufacturing explosive detection solutions, which are currently in high demand.

Speaking recently before a US Senate committee David Stone, administrator with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), said that intelligence points to growing terrorist threat possibilities within the aviation industry. Of the recent $5.6 billion proposed Homeland Security Department budget, nearly $5 billion is earmarked exclusively for aviation security. In addition to the larger conglomerates providing security solutions, smaller companies have had, and continue to have, an important role in researching and developing new technologies for use in explosive detection solutions.

Article Excerpt: Explosive Detection System Technologies – Intelligence Points To Increased Aviation Industry Terrorist Threats Including Hijacking And Bombing.

Given the current environment within North America and the Bush administration, right now would seem to be a very profitable point in time to be in the explosives detection system (EDS) business. Speaking recently before a US Senate committee David Stone, administrator with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), said that intelligence points to growing terrorist threats within the aviation industry. Of the recent $5.6 billion proposed Homeland Security Department budget, nearly $5 billion is earmarked exclusively for aviation security.

Nico Melendez, TSA Field Communications Director for Los Angeles (which manages security for LAX airport, among others), said that the TSA continues to test new technologies that will make the agency more efficient, while relieving the need for added human resources. “The TSA has opportunities for small businesses in both primary contractor and subcontractor roles. Smaller companies have had, and continue to have, an important role in researching and developing new technologies for use in explosive detection.”

Deirdre O’Sullivan, TSA Spokesperson, concurred with Melendez, stating that, “The TSA sources their current and new technologies from both smaller companies and larger conglomerates. In the past few years we have seen that the larger conglomerates tend to buy smaller companies with promising technologies. The TSA is of course out to purchase the most up to date technologies possible.”

"The current airport security systems are outdated, ineffective and very costly to operate,” said John Altes, CEO of Hawk Protection Systems (OTC.PK: HWPR). “In fact, several governmental agencies who have studied the issue have dubbed current explosive detection technologies as the weak point in airport security and are in the process of setting up guidelines and standards that will be in effect throughout the US within the next 2 years."

In 1995 Electronic Sensor Technology (OTCBB: ESNR) perfected their patented zNose technology and spun it off to form the current company. “We delivered several prototypes to the FAA and the army,” said Edward Staples, Managing Director. “Back in those days threats were pretty simple – mostly nitro based compounds. Today, the situation has changed dramatically. Threats do not just encompass explosives. The shoe bomber for example, was carrying a compound called TATP (triacetone-triperoxide), which cannot be seen with a nitro based detector.”

Ken Ducey, President of Markland Technologies (OTCBB: MRKL) “There is no question that a wave is coming, and we want to make sure that Markland is at the forefront of that wave. Our technology portfolio is diversified and ahead of the curve. Our suite of next-generation electronic imaging and detection solutions are being designed to spot suicide bombers and terrorists before they can carry out their attacks."
