ESBI (Enhanced Side Ballistic Insert) — standard side ceramic-composite armor elements for standard body armor of the US armed forces.
ESBI is an improved modification that corresponds to the ESAPI of the main armor inserts. The side plates are in the form of a linear curvature.
The design is similar to unified thoracic-dorsal armor inserts: a monolithic layer of boron carbide on a substrate of high molecular weight polyethylene.
Serial production began in 2005, when the insufficient area of bullet protection of the standard Interceptor body armor became apparent. Rev. E Version was released in later years, but it protects against the same threats as previous versions. Plates withstand:
- 3 shots of 147-grain (9.5 g) 7.62×51mm M80 ball bullets at a velocity of 2,750-foot-per-second (840 m/s)+50-foot-per-second (15 m/s) (V0);
- 3 shots of 147-grain (9.5 g) 7.62×54mmR LPS steel-core FMJ bullets at a velocity of 2,750-foot-per-second (840 m/s)+50-foot-per-second (15 m/s) (V0);
- 3 shots of 62-grain (4.0 g) 5.56×45mm M855 bullets at a velocity of 3,250-foot-per-second (990 m/s)+50-foot-per-second (15 m/s) (V0);
- 2 shots of 166-grain (10.8 g) .30-06 M2 AP armor-piercing bullets at a velocity of 2,850-foot-per-second (870 m/s)+50-foot-per-second (15 m/s) (V0).
