This video demonstrates a point-blank 9mm ballistic test on a Level 3A body armor vest using ballistic clay to measure backface deformation. The test, conducted by 704 Tactical, highlights that while the vest stopped the round, the significant indentation in the clay indicates a potentially lethal impact to internal organs in a real-world scenario. The expert reviewer emphasizes the importance of understanding backface deformation beyond just round penetration.
This video demonstrates a high-energy ballistics test where AR500 Armor Level III plates are subjected to impacts from a 37mm Parrott Rifle cannon. The expert instructors from Iraqveteran8888, Chad and Eric, use a chronograph to measure projectile velocity and analyze the armor's performance against both a solid 1.5lb lead projectile and a canister round of 00 buckshot. The results highlight the extreme energy transfer and the armor's ability to stop projectiles, while also emphasizing the survivability implications of such impacts.
