The 1A Ballistic Package Shoulder Protector, combined with the M-Tac Cuirass QRS plate carrier and M-Tac neckwear, forms a protective kit for the modern fighter based on the plate carrier. The product itself is a compact shoulder module that provides anti-shrapnel protection for the biceps, shoulder joint and arteries.
It is recommended to attach this piece of protection to the M-Tac neckpiece with 1A ballistic packs for Cuirass QRS or to the shoulder platform of the Cuirass QRS plate carrier. The product attaches to the shoulder platform of the stovepipe with Velcro Velcro straps. A plastic frame with a D-ring lock works as a connecting element and helps to remove the shoulder system if necessary. Special attention was paid to the anatomical shape of the product when developing the shoulder protection. The module is designed so that the height of the attachment to the plate carrier is adjustable thanks to a vertical sling with Velcro. The shoulder protector is also adjustable to the arm volume and fixed with a special horizontal sling.
Considerable effort has been made to maintain the manoeuvrability of the fighter when using shoulder ballistic protection. This design does not conflict with other equipment elements and provides sufficient freedom of movement.
The shoulder pads are made of Cordura 500D and are fitted with ballistic pouches that protect against ricochets and shrapnel. The armour pouches are made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and are STANAG 2920 compliant with a V-50 anti-shrapnel resistance rating of around 580m/s.
To understand the analogy of anti-shrapnel resistance, an armour package with a similar composition corresponds to 1A class (9x18 APS) according to DSTU 4103-2002 and 1 class (9x18 APS, 9x19 Luger) according to the new DSTU 8782: 2018 (Under 1A, 1 class is understood the equivalent composition, which is tested on standard samples of 400x400mm. Therefore, on smaller size and shape specimens, the obstructive injury may be different).
