What are SMALL ARMS and LIGHT WEAPONS (SALW)? | JSAC's WDP Project | ||
"Small Arms", weapons designed for individual use, and "Light Weapons", those designed for use by a crew, are collectively called SALW. SALW includes pistols, rifles, and potable launchers of anti-tank missiles. Landmines and explosives are also types of SALW in a broad definition. The annual number of SALW victims are said to be more than 500,000, and thus, SALW is sometimes called "de facto Weapons of Mass Destruction." |
WDP Project is a new weapons collection methodology established by JSAC. WDP Project stands for Weapons Reduction and Development for Peace Project. Please see Weapons Reduction and Development for Peace (WDP) : a new approach for voluntary weapons surrendering. |
