{"title":"Ballistic Plates and Panels","description":"\u003cp\u003eLightweight ballistic plates you say? A ballistic plate is the last line of defense, when the proverbial feces has been distributed on the spinning fan blades, and the opponent has not been out-maneuvered and suppressed by movement and fire. If a projectile strikes the armor plate, you will probably be out of action for a while, but likely not for ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want to shield yourself from high energy threats beyond the likes of shrapnel and pistol caliber bullets, you’ll do well by slipping some ballistic plates in your armor vest, perhaps even ballistic side plates. This will of course make you a proper juggernaut – if you need to maximize your mobility, you can opt to protect your upper torso vitals with armor plates only, in a plate carrier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome ballistic plates are designed to work “In Conjunction With” a soft ballistic panel. Others have their ballistic rating just as they are, “Stand Alone”. If the threat level is low, some users might choose to only have soft ballistic panels in their plate carrier, or wear a so-called bulletproof vest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe price logic with ballistic plates is quite simple. The price goes up with the level of protection. Also, thinner and\/or lighter plates are usually more expensive inside the same level of ballistic protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBallistic plates are quite useless without a proper carrier system. \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/tactical-vests-and-plate-carriers\"\u003eWe have those, too\u003c\/a\u003e.
