Broward County Sheriff’s Office, FL

the most innovative multi-range facility providing total tactical control

The Broward County Sheriff’s Office Research, Development & Training Center is a multi-range indoor hub built at scale to elevate realism, throughput, and instructor control. Two purpose-built tactical bays pair tactical baffles, a Fixed Lateral 360° Target System, and DRM Pro moving targets—coordinated through SmartRange Axis for precise timing, presentation, and lane management—so teams can train faster, safer, and closer to real-world pressure. Safety and longevity are designed in from the start: the Total Containment Trap streamlines lead management and maintenance, while PEPP and acoustic tiles reduce reverberation to improve coaching, communication, and comfort. A modular TAC House enables force-on-force and room-clearing in reconfigurable layouts, turning the facility into a flexible ecosystem for decision-making under stress and scalable multi-agency readiness. Explore our Law Enforcement Training Solutions and the systems above to see how this capability extends across your mission.
