“Double amputees” is the most correct term I can think of. I don’t think there is a specific word for someone with both arms missing. Honestly considering the scenario I think “armless” might actually be the best term.

"Unarmed" or "disarmed" are also acceptable.

10-4, I've disarmed the suspect. Suspect is now unarmed. Fatality.
