State-of-the-Art Trauma Mitigation
Designed with your safety in mind, the body armor incorporates an advanced trauma mitigation base, engineered using cutting-edge materials and design principles. This base is specifically designed to absorb and disperse the energy from ballistic impacts effectively.

By doing so, the Level IV plate significantly reduces the risk of trauma to the wearer, enhancing the overall safety and effectiveness of the armor in high-risk situations.

Cutting-Edge Material Technology
The DFNDR Armor® Rifle Rated Level IV plate is equipped with Crystalline Ceramic Strike Face and Core. This advanced feature employs crystalline ceramic materials to create a strong, durable barrier against high-velocity impacts, ensuring exceptional protection.

The tactical gear is reinforced with a proprietary System Structural Reinforcement technology. This unique enhancement significantly boosts the body armor to withstand multiple hits, crucially preserving its structural integrity under intense ballistic pressure.

The armor's backing support is another notable aspect. It is meticulously crafted from the highest grade of UHMWPE fiber, Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene composite combined with a robust resin matrix.

This fusion results in a stand alone level 4 armor system that is both rigid and lightweight, striking an optimal balance between protection and ease of movement.

Additionally, the armor plates incorporate Spall-Tek Innovation, a cutting-edge technology designed to reduce the deflection and fragmentation of projectiles. This feature adds an extra layer of safety, ensuring comprehensive protection for the wearer in various combat situations.
