Welcome to Body Armor page

A ballistic vest, otherwise known as a bullet-proof vest or body armor, is a protective torso covering that absorbs the impact from gun-fired projectiles and explosive fragments. Soft vests made from layers of tightly-woven fibres protect wearers from projectiles fired from handguns, shotguns, and shrapnel from explosives such as hand grenades. When metal or ceramic plates are used with a soft vest, it can also protect wearers from shots fired from rifles. Soft vests are commonly worn by police forces and private security guards, and hard-plate reinforced vests are worn by combat soldiers in the armies of various nations as well as armed response police forces.
