This video tests the ballistic resistance of an RTS Tactical Level 3A SWAT shield against various archery projectiles. While traditional and pocket shot arrows failed to penetrate, a PSE Evoke 31 compound bow at 330 fps caused significant penetration. The TenPoint Viper S400 crossbow, firing a broadhead at 400 fps, completely penetrated the shield, highlighting the limitations of Level 3A protection against high-powered crossbows.
This experiment tests the penetration power of arrows against hard hats. A PSE Evoke 31 compound bow, drawing 75 lbs and shooting at 330 fps, was used. A standard practice tip arrow penetrated two hard hats, stopping at the third. A stainless steel broadhead arrow, however, completely pierced three hard hats, demonstrating significantly higher penetration capability.
