This video features Iraqveteran8888 conducting a comprehensive torture test of the Premier Body Armor Fortis Level 3A ballistic helmet. The helmet is subjected to various threats, including 9mm, .44 Magnum, 7.62x25mm AP, and 5.7x28mm rounds, to assess its ballistic performance and backface deformation. The review highlights the helmet's construction, adjustability, and comfort, concluding it exceeded expectations against multiple calibers.

This video details a comprehensive ballistic testing of the Premier Body Armor Fortis Level III+ GT plate, a NIJ RF2 rated armor designed as a lightweight alternative to Level IV plates. The testing involves multiple rifle caliber threats at close range (25 feet) and extended distances (100 yards), evaluating penetration and back face deformation. The plate demonstrates impressive performance against common threats like 5.56x45mm and 7.62x39mm, while also showing its limitations against higher-level threats at longer ranges as expected.

This video demonstrates the ballistic performance of a Premier Body Armor Fortis Level 3A helmet against various handgun calibers, from .22 LR up to .500 Magnum. Using a ballistic dummy head, the test assesses the helmet's ability to stop rounds and mitigate backface deformation. While the helmet successfully stopped all tested calibers, significant deformation occurred with higher-powered rounds, and the .500 Magnum ultimately caused catastrophic damage to the dummy head, indicating potential survivability issues with extreme calibers.

This video provides an in-depth test of Premier Body Armor's FORTIS line of affordable body armor plates. The reviewer, Magic Prepper, tests three different plates (FORTIS 3+ RF1, FORTIS 3+ GT RF2, and Level 4 RF3) against various rifle calibers including M193, M855, and 308 M80. The testing focuses on penetration, backface deformation, and overall performance relative to NIJ standards and manufacturer claims, offering insights into the value proposition of budget-friendly ballistic protection.

This video tests the Premier Body Armor FORTIS Level IIIA helmet against various handgun and magnum calibers, including .22 LR, 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, 10mm, .44 Magnum, and 12 gauge buckshot. The helmet successfully stopped all tested calibers up to and including .44 Magnum, demonstrating impressive ballistic protection. Key features include an adjustable dial retention system, extensive Velcro real estate for accessories, and a comfortable internal padding system.
