The starting point for this development were the ballistic-only offerings of that time using NIJ Level 2A, 2, and 3A or HOSDB HG 1 and 2, with compliant ballistic vest products being manufactured with areal densities of between 5.5 and 6 kg/m 2 (1.1 and 1.2 lb/ft 2 or 18 and 20 oz/ft 2). However police forces were evaluating their "street ...

The 6B3 ballistic vest that was issued to Soviet troops in Afghanistan was capable of stopping 7.62x39 PS rounds fired from AKM at a close range, however 5.56x45 M855 rounds fired from M16 at ranges closer than 100 meters could still pierce the vest. As such, the 6B4 ballistic vest was developed, which used boron carbide ADU 14.20.00.000 tiles ...
