ESAPI Ceramic armor plates — Small.
ESAPI armor plates are one of the newest and best developments in the field of personal armor protection. They began to enter service with the US Army in 2005 as an improved model of SAPI plates and are actively used in all bulletproof vests today. They provide protection against most known types of small arms and are able to withstand even armor-piercing bullets.
The design of the armor plate is two-layer. The core material is boron carbide. The sheath is Honeywell's Spektra polyethylene fiber.
Equivalent to protection class: NIJ IV (USA) or DSTU 6 (Ukraine)
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);
