Less Lethality

Less lethality refers to designing weapons, systems, or procedures that aim to reduce the likelihood of causing death or severe injury. The goal is to effectively neutralize threats or accomplish objectives while minimizing harm to people. This approach focuses on safety, preserving life, and reducing collateral damage, often used in military, law enforcement, and security operations. It emphasizes alternative options such as restraint, non-lethal force, or advanced technologies that incapacitate rather than destroy, promoting responsible use of force and aligning with ethical standards and humanitarian considerations.
