Soft Armor Plate Ukrainian army soft armor plate provides groin protection from shrapnel and pistol-caliber rounds. It’s easily inserted into a dedicated pouch and mounted beneath the front flap of your vest using a Velcro panel. The lightweight ballistic package adapts to your body without limiting movement or flexibility during action. The plate is made from high-performance UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) and aramid fiber, combining the flexibility of fabric with tested ballistic resistance. Unlike Kevlar, UHMWPE maintains its protective properties even when wet, offering consistent safety in all weather conditions. Certified to NIJ Level 1A (Class 1), this lightweight plate has passed ballistic testing against pistol rounds, including: 9x18mm (Mak.) – approx. 315 m/s, 300 J 9x19mm (Luger) – approx. 375–400 m/s, 450–500 J It resists both soft-core and shrapnel threats, including irregular fragments from explosives, which often travel at high speeds and cause severe damage. Soft Plate Material Advantages: UHMWPE (Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene): High tensile strength and impact resistance; Lightweight and water-resistant; Durable in extreme environments. Aramid Fiber (Kevlar): Effective energy absorption and dispersion; Resistant to heat and UV radiation.
