Why Choose the Tacticon SRT Plate?

Unlike traditional Level III plates designed for 7.62x51 (M80), the Tacticon SRT focuses on the most common rifle threats: 5.56 M193 and 7.62x39. This targeted approach allows for a lighter and thinner plate without compromising protection.

Special Rifle Threat (SRT) vs. Level III:

• NIJ Level III standards focus on 7.62x51.

• The SRT plate is optimized for 5.56 and 7.62x39, resulting in a lighter design.

• While the plate will stop 7.62x51, the back face deformation can exceed NIJ standards.
