Spartan Armor Systems ceramic/composite body armor packages can be used as a stand-alone body armor system or as backer to any of our hard armor systems for maximum protection. For instance, you could wear our Flex Fused Core level IIIA body armor panels as a backer to our AR550 Leonidas Plate Carrier Package.
What Is Composite / Ceramic Body Armor?
Ceramic/composite body armor plates are made of strong fabric-like materials, which are layered over one another. While steel is a stronger material, the design and advanced technology that goes into composite/ceramic plates make them as strong, and sometimes even stronger than steel. Ammunition rounds such as .223/5.56 have greater penetrating ability due to their increased velocities requiring body armor plates that have been special threat tested to defeat these rounds. Compared to steel, composite/ceramic body armor plates are less durable and have a longer shelf life, but are also more flexible and lighter.
Ceramic/Composite Armor Plate Carrier Packages
