CPE Lightweight Armour Plate, NIJ III+ Stand Alone
An extremely lightweight bulletproof plate for plate carriers and body armor vests. NIJ III+ means these stop the most common "bad guy" guns out there. A single plate weighs only 1.67 kg / 3.6 lbs, which means a pair of these is 3 kg / 6.6 lbs lighter than a pair of ceramic NIJ IV plates! Weight really makes a difference when you want to stay agile and alert for extended periods. On top of all these are waterproof, perfect for maritime use!

NIJ III+ level protection
The NIJ 101.06 standard level III is tested with six hits from a 7.62 NATO rifle. In short, it offers protection from common non-AP rifle rounds.
The suffix + is used by many manufacturers to market plates that offer more protection than just the standard it exceeds. In this case, the extra protection you get is against these rounds:
- 7.62x39 AP
- 5.56x45 mm M193
