The purpose of this standard is to provide general guidelines for procedures, equipment, physical conditions, and terminology for determining the ballistic resistance of metallic, nonmetallic and composite armor against small arms projectiles. The ballistic test procedure described in this...
1.1 This practice applies only to the conditioning of soft body armor via temperature, humidity, and tumbling exposure prior to ballistic resistance testing. 1.2 This practice is intended for soft armor for law enforcement applications, and its purpose is to subject test items...

There is increasing interest in the area of protective vests, either for protection against bullets or protection from the most realistic threats within domestic frontline operations: edged weapon, knives, and medical needles. This volume addresses that need. This new book provides an in-depth...
This specification covers requirements for one type and size of body armor insert.
This practice specifies a procedure for creating appliques (that is, build-up of clay) for use behind nonplanar, soft body armor test items and affixing the appliques to the clay block. NOTE 1-This practice describes a single applique shape; additional shapes may be described in other...
4.1 U.S. Department of Defense and U.S. Department of Justice standards for assessing the performance of ballistic-resistant torso body armor require the use of backing assemblies made with Roma Plastilina No. 1®. The creation of appliques behind nonplanar soft armor test items...

This specification covers forged aluminum alloy armor, die forgings from ¾ inch up to and including 3 inches in thickness for type I, class A forgings, and from ¾ inch up to and including 4 inches for type I, class B forgings. Type II forging thicknesses should be as specified (see 6.2).
1.1 This test method addresses resistance to ballistic penetration and to backface deformation (BFD) for ballistic-resistant torso body armor and shoot packs. 1.2 This test method is intended for testing of soft body armor, hard armor plates, in conjunction with...
