PERSONAL ROLE RADIO (PRR)

 

OP FINGAL, Khabul, Afghanistan, 20/03/2002: Wearing a personal role radio, a lance corporal from 156 Provo Company, Royal Military Police chats with local Afghan police in Kabul. Afghanistan. British troops deployed in Afghanistan on Operation FINGAL under the auspices of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF). Their mission to assist the interim administration with security and stability.

The Personal Role Radio (PRR) is a small transmitter-receiver that allows infantry soldiers to communicate over short distances - even through thick cover or the walls of buildings - without shouting, hand signals or relaying messages.


 

PRR enables section commanders to react quickly, aggressively and efficiently to rapidly changing situations including contact with the enemy - greatly increasing the effectiveness of infantry fire teams. PRR is issued to every member of an eight-strong infantry section, and will be available to other troops in due course.
