This video demonstrates a rigorous test of Armored Republic's A2 Steel Plates against armor-piercing 7.62x54R rounds fired from a PKM machine gun. The results show the steel plates, even when paired with a trauma pad, effectively stopped multiple AP rounds without penetration, highlighting their capability in high-threat scenarios. The expert host from Civilian Tactical expresses genuine surprise at the performance, underscoring the reliability of the tested gear.

This review by Pew Pew Tactical tests RTS Tactical's ballistic shields and a ballistic pillow. The shields, rated NIJ 3+, demonstrated effectiveness against 9mm, .45 ACP, 5.56 M855, and 12-gauge slugs, with only minor spalling observed on the polyurea coating. The ballistic pillow, rated 3A, stopped handgun rounds but was penetrated by rifle rounds, though it still stopped 12-gauge slugs. The review also briefly covers an RTS Tactical plate carrier and IFAK.

This YouTube Shorts video from Predator Armor showcases their Non-Ballistic Trauma Pads. The description emphasizes their function in protecting against injuries caused by back face deformation by dissipating impact energy and reducing transmitted force. The pads are designed to be comfortable when worn with body armor, utilizing high-density, flexible materials to absorb impact and reduce blunt force trauma. A link to the full video and the product on their website is provided.

This video provides an in-depth review and extreme ballistic testing of the Guard Dog Armor Ridgeback M4 Plus body armor. The instructor demonstrates the plate's ability to stop multiple 30-06 armor-piercing rounds, highlighting its construction, anti-spall features, and trauma pad. The review emphasizes the plate's performance relative to its weight and price point.

This video focuses on the Predator Armor Non-Ballistic Trauma Pads, highlighting their function in mitigating injuries from back face deformation when used with body armor. The description emphasizes how these high-density, flexible pads dissipate impact energy, reduce transmitted force, and absorb blunt force trauma, ultimately enhancing comfort. The video directs viewers to the Predator Armor website for purchasing these accessories.

This video provides an overview of Predator Armor's Non-Ballistic Trauma Pads. The description highlights their function in protecting against back face deformation and blunt force trauma by dissipating impact energy. These pads are engineered for comfort when worn with body armor and are designed to be compatible with Predator Armor's Level IIIA, Level III, and Level III+ armor plates. The pads are made from high-density, flexible materials to absorb impact. A link to purchase is provided.

This video from The VSO Gun Channel features an in-depth, albeit informal, ballistic testing of Caliber Armor's NIJ Level 3A soft body armor. The testing includes multiple handgun calibers (9mm, .45 ACP, .44 Magnum) and an 'absurd' test with a .50 Action Express round, demonstrating the armor's capability to stop these threats. The video also compares the backface deformation with and without a trauma pad.

This video demonstrates the critical importance of trauma pads when using body armor. Testing with modeling clay reveals that while Level IIIA armor stops projectiles, the resulting blunt force trauma can cause significant injury. Trauma pads demonstrably reduce impact depth by up to 66% for .45 ACP and 75% for 9mm rounds, making them a vital, inexpensive addition for anyone wearing armor.

This video provides an expert-level assessment of the Spartan Armor Systems ATC AR500 Level III plate, featuring detailed live-fire testing with various calibers including 9mm, .45 ACP, and .44 Magnum. The instructors demonstrate the plate's durability, the effectiveness of its anti-spall coating, and the benefits of the accompanying trauma pad, offering practical insights for armor selection.
