3. NEW QUALITY OF THE BODY ARMOR VESTS
Body armor vests with a reliable assessment of quality indicators of protective properties.
Functional body armor vests ensure the performance of the user’s professional functions
under the conditions of integrated effects of different damaging factors for a specific period
of time.
SOFT PROTECTIVE BODY ARMOR VESTS OF “KORA-FENIX”
WITH INCREASED RELIABILITY
Achievements:
Optimal structure of soft-armor protection for achieving non-traumatic effect (reduction
in the dynamic injury level by 3-4 times in comparison with the standards of European
Union and Russia, and by 8 times - in comparison with NIJ.
Ability to perform combat missions in the repeated operational fire defeat.
Multifold guaranteed service life due to a special technology of preventive maintenance
work.
Anthropological adaptive suspension system of a body armor vest (reduction in the
effective weight of the product during the operation by 2-2.5 times).

“Fenix” products are the world’s only aramid body armor vests with a three-fold guaranteed
service life (storage).

5. Technical characteristics of electronic tags
Due to the Bauman MSTU know-how technology, the exclusive technical indicator of
the functional injury prevention of the product for the blunt trauma at the conditional
defeat (no penetration) has been certified under the existing standard as "minor injuries"
(the trauma is below the 1st severity level GOST
R50744 -95).
Our body armor vests ensure operational injury prevention referred to the
compression trauma of the spine and shoulder girdle due to constructive implemented
power
unloading
during
a
long-term
continuous
wearing.
Thus, our body armor vests have technical support for guaranteeing the ballistic
resistance for the stated period of operation on the basis of the initial ballistic resource.
Based on the structure of the affecting factors of high-explosive ammunition under the
real conditions of counter-terrorism, the soft armor packages in our body armor vests in
the area of the general protection have enhanced resistance to hitting by actual full-scale
ammunition fragments: RGO (defensive hand grenade), RGN (manual offensive grenade )
, VOG- 25 (rifle grenades for AK-74), and also have the reliable estimates of the levels of
protection
based
on
the
fragmentation
explosive
tests.
These mentioned quality indicators of protective properties are documented in the
regulatory documents (Certificate of Conformity and medical-biological conclusion on the
injury prevention) and reflected in the official awards of Russian State Standard:
Gold medal and diploma of "National Security" Awards at the International Exhibition
"Integrated Security" (Moscow, May 2013) "... for the only body armor vest in the world
that has a technical support for lifetime warranty on ballistic stability.«
Gold medal and diploma of "National Security" Awards at the International Exhibition
“INTERPOLITECH 2013" (Moscow, October 2013) "... for the only body armor vest in the
world with the injury prevention, according to the standards of the labour occupational
safety legislation of employees.«
