Security Forces Confrontation Management Unit Type Code (UTC)

The Security Forces QFL3C Confrontation Management UTC delivers essential non-lethal capabilities to Air Force Defenders, enabling effective response during escalation-of-force situations while minimizing the risk of permanent injury or incapacitation. This UTC includes a range of Intermediate Force Capabilities (IFCs)—tools that bridge the gap between mere presence and full-scale combat. Among its assets are loud voice systems, tasers, sprays, and other non-lethal weapons designed to control and de-escalate confrontations.

In addition to these tools, the QFL3C provides protective gear to ensure Defender safety during volatile engagements. Its deployable nature makes it ideal for both domestic and expeditionary operations, having been utilized during high-profile events such as the U.S. Capitol riots and other domestic security missions. This UTC enhances mission flexibility by equipping Security Forces with scalable options to manage civil disturbances, crowd control, and other non-lethal engagement scenarios.
