The TSA (Transportation Security Administration), the US government agency that takes care of security at US airports, donated half a ton of equipment to Anac (National Civil Aviation Agency) to increase the security of shipments in Brazil.
According to Anac, the 16 test kits arrived this Tuesday (29) to detect explosives, firearms and other items with prohibited access to restricted areas of airports.
The equipment will be used by the teams of servers of the Superintendence of Airport Infrastructure and the regional centers of civil aviation.
The partnership also includes the visit of TSA specialists to Brazil to train agents from different sectors of air transport in security against illicit acts at airports.
