Use the net to catch the car

British police are testing a special type of net that allows capturing suspicious cars.

This grid, called X-Net, can be launched into the wheel, wrapped around the axle, punctured the tire and forced to stop the car without jeopardizing the driver within 75 meters.

In fact, X-Net has been used by US troops in Iraq and Afghanistan to prevent suicide bombers from cars. The size of X-Net when launched is

5.8 x 3 meters, can be reused many times, when folded, can be neatly put into a small backpack. In an emergency, X-Net only takes 20 seconds to use.

British police were very excited when they were equipped with this new device to capture "unsavory" cars. The production of X-Net is now delivered to QinetiQ Company of the UK Ministry of Defense. Each X-Net costs 3,000 pounds. The US military is using 2,000 special nets in Iraq and Afghanistan.
