Modular Body Armor Vest

Steel Defender specializes in two types of body armor vests: the compact vest, and the modular body armor vest. We use the toughest, most reliable materials of steel and ceramic as ballistic protective plates inside these vests. This blog will describe some of the standard features of our modular body armor vest.

            The modular body armor vest separates itself from the compact vest by the fact that it has different compartments for different tools and uses by the wearer. The features also include a support band inside the vest, which gives extra PALS (Pouch Attachment Ladder System) to hold additional armored side-panel plates. You can also use these pouch attachment sites for equipment. The fact that you can leave the equipment inside the vest means you get an added layer of concealment and stealth in your operation.

            Despite the heavy protection you receive with the ceramic ballistic plates, the vest is lightly-padded inside and ends up being relatively cool. The modular body armor vest is also adjustable for sizes medium through extra-large. The vest offers a shoulder support system as well as quickly and easily adjusted straps, to tighten and loosen the vest as needed. Certain features are also detachable and repositionable, making the vest more versatile. There are even pull-down flaps that open and close easily to give you access to the ceramic ballistic plates, if you need to replace or assess them. Always thinking ahead, the modular body armor vest includes a pocket specifically for a map, so that you are even further prepared to accomplish the rigorous tasks you may have at hand
