Ballistic insert K5A "Chrabąszcz"

The K5A ballistic insert (PN-V-87000:2011 equivalent to NIJ 0101.06 Level IV) has been designed as a stand-alone protective plate, providing effective protection against fragments and 7.62×51 mm ammunition (AP ammunition) with an initial velocity of 820 m/s ± 15 m/s.

K5A ‘Chrabąszcz’ ballistic plates have been tested in the accredited WITU Small Arms and Protective Shields Testing Laboratory (PCA No. AB 171). Four separate ballistic tests were conducted, each on two independent plates (in dry conditions, rain, temperature +50℃, temperature -40℃).

The plate is lightweight and ergonomically designed, allowing for comfortable wear without restricting movement. The plate was additionally tested at ISL (French-German Research Institute Of Saint-Louis) using 30.06 AP M2 ammunition, which corresponds to NIJ 0101.06 Level IV.

Each batch of 300 pieces undergoes ballistic testing in accordance with the requirements of the Polish Army. The plate, after FULL ballistic testing, is intended for the civilian market - no permit/licence is required.
