New Hard Armor Inserts Developed
EnGarde body armor introduces a new hard armor insert to coop with the latest developments in the war in Iraq . |
| |
As the US Army is planning to upgrade its hard armor inserts the body armor manufacturer EnGarde has launched a new product, the EnGarde Level IV+ insert.
The EnGarde Level IV+ insert does not only stop multiple 7.62x54 hits but also the infamous a rmor piercing incendiary type B-32 version. These type B-32 black over red tip variants coming out of the insurgents Dragunov sniper rifles and AK-47's are not on the US ballistic standard listings. "That is the reason that we call it a Level IV+ insert" states Mr. Luiten from EnGarde body armor.
"We are convinced that you should stay ahead of the competition, and not just follow them" comments the EnGarde spokesman on incidents with rebels in Iraq . US soldiers found a weapons cache some months ago which also consisted of 7.62mm armor piercing incendiary rounds.

| "It would not be wise to issue for US$ 160 million of improved hard armor inserts to the troops and see that the competition just buys armor piercing incendiary bullets for a few bucks and shoot right through the new plates. The fact that the this ammunition is illegal, will not stop the insurgents from getting it." |
