"Even in a gunfight, we'd just get our asses kicked by the simplest rifles."
Russian soldiers posted a video testing the "unparalleled" bulletproof vest "Module-Monolith," produced by JSC "Special Materials Research Institute" (St. Petersburg). During the experiment, all five bullets penetrated the armor plate completely. The soldiers expressed their dissatisfaction with the quality of the heavy and useless gear: "Just f*cking great. Thank you, Ministry of Defense."
Maybe I just don't know how bulletproof vests work, but shouldn't there be some layers of energy dispersing material on top of that plate?
Is it a fair comparison without?
The plate should work on its own. The thing that stands out to me is there's not even deformation. None of the impact is being caught and spread out. Just perfect holes. So yeah. Well outside the envelope for where the kevlar shell would have made a difference.
Interesting, I learnt something new today.
Seems delightfully medieval as a solution. What does the Kevlar do? Mostly anti-spalling?
Stops shrapnel, pistol rounds, and spalling.
