Militarization of police refers to the use of military equipment and tactics by law enforcement officers. This includes the use of armored vehicles, assault rifles, flashbang grenades, sniper rifles, and SWAT teams.

Opponents argue that police forces which received military equipment were more likely to have violent encounters with the public.
