SOV™ Flexible Body Armor
"Moves when you Move"
Developments in body armor over the last
thirty years are numerous, but very few
actually have revolutionized the industry.
The last two major developments were the
introduction of Kevlar and Spectra products
which significantly lowered weights compared
to ballistic nylon. Now, Pinnacle Armor
presents a revolutionary technology called
DRAGON SKIN®, the first
practical,
FLEXIBLE BODY ARMOR
that defeats rifle rounds.
Pinnacle Armor was founded by a noted
inventor and author in the field of
ballistic armor, Murray Neal. Mr. Neal has
relied on his combined expertise of
ballistic sciences and field experience to
jointly achieve a quantum leap in
technology-the first flexible body armor
that defeats rifle fire. Now you can wear
armor that flexes and molds to the contours
of your body and allows for greater coverage
than a rigid 10" x 12" plate which is the
typical coverage offered in current
technology.
SOV™ flexible armor is completely fabricated
in the USA for American Special Forces,
Police Tactical Teams and approved foreign
militaries.
Unmatched in its capabilities, the SOV™
flexible body armor system offers the
following features in Level III, IV & V body
armor:
-
Ballistic Capability
MIL-STD SOV-2000™
The MIL-STD SOV-2000™ Level III
flexible body armor system will
defeat the following rifle rounds
that normally fall into the Level IV
category and all lesser threats.
-
7.62 x 39 mm 122 GR, steel case
mild steel core: 2300 - 2400
fps.
-
5.56 x 45 mm 65 GR, M855 (SS109
Green tip): 3200 - 3300 fps.
Additionally, the SOV™ - D.O.D. 2000
flexible Level III system exceeds
the MIL-P-46593A fragmentation
requirements around the high power
rifle defeating areas.
-
Flexibility
The
only Level III ballistic vests that are
flexible enough to wrap around the whole
torso area that "move when you move". No
more restricted movements when
rappelling, fast roping, diving, entry
work, sky diving or other rigorous
activities. These vests wear like level
III-A soft body armor.
-
Lightweight
The lightest overt tactical and only
covert concealable vests offering this
type of protection and coverage.
-
Coverage Options
The only Level III ballistic vests that
offer a minimum of 44% more
coverage from our standard combined
front and rear rifle protection than two
standard 10" X 12" tactical plates. Full
torso wrap coverage is available.
-
Nominal thickness
The SOV-2000™ is the thinnest multiple
repeat hit vest on the market and is
from .796" to .858" in total nominal
thickness.
-
Diving Capable
The only Level III ballistic vests that
are offered in a positive, negative or
neutrally buoyant configuration. Two
waterproofing configurations are
utilized: an extremely durable and
highly wear resistant sealing for the
overt tactical vest, and a lighter
durable, wear resistant sealing for the
covert concealed vest.
The SOV-2000™ Level III, with our large
standard tactical front and back panel
configuration weighs 16.5 lbs. and varies
depending on the level of coverage needed.
The SOV-2000™ is manufactured with a ceramic
composite.
