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 have a linear curvature.
The design is similar to the unified chest-back armored inserts: a monolithic boron carbide layer on a high molecular weight polyethylene substrate.
Serial production began in 2005, when the insufficient area of bulletproof protection of the standard Interceptor body armor became apparent.
According to the US standard, the plates withstand the following threats without penetration:
- 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).
