Level 3+ RF1 RIFLE PLATE

Engineered for modern combat, law enforcement, and rapid tactical deployments, the NIJ.07 RF1 Hard Armor Plate merges advanced materials with a performance-driven design. Built from 100% Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE), it delivers rifle-rated protection while keeping weight exceptionally low—critical for mobility in high-threat environments.

Tested to the NIJ.07 RF1 standard, the plate is evaluated against six rifle threats and is designed to stop:

• 7.62×51mm M80 — NATO ball

• 7.62×39mm MSC — AK-pattern mild steel core

• 5.56×45mm M193 — High-velocity AR-15/M16

Despite its protection rating, it remains far lighter than typical ceramic plates, reducing fatigue and improving endurance during extended missions. Its ergonomic contour enhances comfort and stability during dynamic movement and prolonged vehicle operations.

Advanced Trauma Reduction with D3O® Ballistic™ Padding

The integrated D3O® Ballistic™ layer boosts impact mitigation, using a patented polymer that flexes during movement and stiffens on impact to disperse energy while maintaining a slim profile.

Key Advantages of D3O® Padding:

• Up to 3× lighter than standard BFD foams

• High-efficiency energy dispersion at reduced thickness

• Thermoformable for seamless curvature integration

• Consistent performance across extreme environments

By distributing impact forces across a larger area, the system helps reduce blunt-force trauma and supports confidence during multi-impact events within the plate’s tested rating.

Purpose-Built for Tactical Professionals

Ideal for special operations, law enforcement teams, and private security, this RF1 rifle plate combines ultralight UHMW-PE construction with advanced trauma reduction and a rigorously tested threat profile—offering mission-ready protection without compromising mobility.
