The build strategy behind our Model 6001 RF2 ceramic armor plate
Our Model 6001 armor plate is a single-curved armor plate that can resist all RF2 threats, plus M855A1. We have embedded a high-performance silicon carbide tile array deep into the Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight-Polyethylene (UHMWPE). The UHMWPE that surrounds the lightweight ballistic tile protects it during multiple hit scenarios.
The best part about this plate is that even when the ceramic erodes away... the UHMWPE backer is still redundant enough to stop many 5.56 and .223 lead ball projectiles. The Model 6001 is a good example of incorporating redundancies into our armor designs.
