    Thanks. The Slickster doesn't leave much wiggle room!

    Where these are not solid, would they still expire every 5 years? Flexible wouldn’t degrade the same way, I would think.

    Can you pls test how much blunt force trauma from rifle rounds compared to ceramic equivalents. Also, where is the armour manufactured?

    How is your product different from existing soft body armour such as those produced by, say, LOF, other than price?

    Based on the materials we use we are giving them a lifespan of around 8 years.

    This is the first soft armor in the world that can handle .223 armor piercing green tips, .308 and other rifle calibers. All other soft armor can only stop pistol rounds.

    This armor is licensed from an American firm and we make it all in house here in Canada with some of the fabric brought in from the US. It has the same amount of backface as a rigid rifle plate. So far our testing has showed the a .308 only leaves around 35 mm of backface which is in line with NIJ requirements. And we’ve tested with .223 green tips going at I believe 1050m/s and then backface was around 18mm far below any dangerous threshold

    That's impressive!
    So what's the thickness of one plate?
    Weight of one?
    Can you make it similar to a BALCS soft panel with side protection?
