Abstract: A deployable ballistic shield is disclosed. The deployable ballistic shield includes a plurality of layers formed of a high impact anti-ballistic Aramid material. The shield is selectively configured between a stowed condition, in which the plurality of layers are in contact with an adjacent layer, and a deployed condition in which the plurality of layers are suspended in a spaced apart relation with a gap formed between the adjacent layer. A handhold is defined at a top end of the shield. Aa foothold may be defined at a bottom end of the shield. The deployable ballistic shield may be used by law enforcement, military, and other personnel as a protective ballistic barrier. Gaps between the plurality of layers serve to absorb the kinetic energy of a ballistic round.
