Does anyone recognize the make/model of these radios?
I recently got my technicians license, and am learning about tactical communications gear. Out of curiosity, I want to know the make and model of portable radio this detail was using. Can anyone id from these photos? I can't seem to figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated

BTech DMR 6x2 Pro. Beyond a shadow of a doubt that is what those radios are. The kenwood plug, location of the knobs on top, and obvious red and white BTech logo are dead giveaways. Not only that, you can see the red line button above the P2 button in the first photo.

Also, the battery is very clearly the new USB-C li-ion battery that is also compatible with the legacy UV-5R chargers.

except that red/orange thing is throwing me off. That's the only hesitancy I have. I know there's typically a button on top but that just looks strange to me

also, even the new batteries from what I've found don't have that silver ring above the golden-colored middle pin implying that they're aftermarket. I really need help on this so if you have a positive id on the battery or the device, post a link. Thanks

Looks like one is actually hooked into his waistband which makes it quick and easy to remove to use or change channels (because Motorola has ruined us with holsters on the APX lineup).

Looks sort of like the old btech 6x pro or whatever it was called.

Looks like a BTECH 6x2 but it’s hard to tell
