Level III Body Armor Bundle

Resist tyrants and criminals. Be prepared. The Heritage plate readily stops penetration, backface deformation, and fragmentation so you can Stay in the Fight.

Eleven years ago, Armored Republic helped build the civilian market by removing the barrier of high costs with the introduction of steel armor: a cost-effective rifle-rated plate that anyone could afford: plates under $100 were unheard of before then, as was the solution to the often-discussed “fragmentation” problem for steel, the FragLock™ coating in base or Build-Up form.

The Heritage plate stops several direct hits while still being exceptionally low-profile. It has been independently tested to meet NIJ 0101.06 threat levels through Oregon Ballistics (OBL), and H.P. White Laboratories. This means it is rated to stop 7.62x51 at a velocity of up to 2,780 FPS. It is also special-threat tested to stop 5.56mm M855/SS109 (Green Tip) at a velocity of 2,780 FPS.

This armor also comes in a more ergonomic Multi-Curve Shape created by putting the steel under several different angles in a press brake.

The Trauma Pads are made of non-newtonian padding that resists compression and mutes kinetic energy. The armor stops the primary concern when it comes to bullets, penetration, and the Trauma Pads stop the secondary concern, the blunt force energy transfer.
