The program was originally established in the wake of 9\/11 to reduce the risk of successful deployment of radiological or nuclear weapons against large urban centers in the United States. The supply of identiFINDER R425 units will further this goal in Denver, Los Angeles, Miami, Washington, New York, Seattle, Atlanta, Boston, and other key cities throughout the country. Teledyne FLIR Defense will also be supplementing the program through ongoing training events including regional workshops, hands-on exercises, and ongoing technical engagement for end users.<\/p>\n<p>\nAs a widely deployed radionuclide identification device (RID) with over 25,000 units in the field, the identiFINDER R425 offers 360-degree coverage to locate and measure gamma and neutron radioactive sources from a compact, handheld interface. The R425 allows operators to remotely take command and communicate results in any nuclear threat scenario or environment, including those with extremely high gamma fields, without endangering the operators.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cSince 2007, Teledyne FLIR Defense has been proud to support the Securing the Cities mission by strengthening radiation preparedness across the country,\u201d said Clint Wichert, Vice President of Detection for Teledyne FLIR Defense. \u201cAs longtime partners with the CWMD, we\u2019ve seen the difference these devices make in protecting against radioactive device deployment, material transport, and illegal possession and storage of hazardous material. While the impact of preparedness is often measured by incidents that never occur, we are proud to help equip first responders with the tools and training they need to keep communities safe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThis order of identiFINDER R425 units builds on the existing inventory distributed by the program for first responder use since 2021. The first wave of new detectors will be rolled out to 10 major metropolitan areas throughout the United States within the coming weeks, with additional deliveries arriving in Q4 2026. The identiFINDER R425 is designed and manufactured in Teledyne FLIR Defense\u2019s Oak Ridge, Tennessee facility.
