This video provides an expert-level assessment of the Russian VANT ballistic shield by Garand Thumb, a recognized authority in tactical gear. The shield, estimated to weigh 50-100 lbs, is tested against various threats including 9mm NATO, 7.62x39mm, 5.56x45mm, 7.62x51mm, .30-06 AP, and .50 BMG rounds, as well as 12-gauge buckshot. While effective against common rifle rounds and pistol calibers, it is defeated by .30-06 AP and .50 BMG. The visor stops buckshot but shatters internally, and the lower soft flap has limited protection.
