Can Level III+ Body Armor Survive M855A1?
This ballistic test evaluates RMA Armament's Level III+ body armor against challenging threats like M855A1, 7.62x54R, and .30-06 M2 AP rounds. While the plate stops standard M855 and 7.62x39, it is penetrated by M855A1 at close range. Extreme backface deformation occurs with 7.62x54R at 100 yards, and .30-06 AP easily defeats the armor at all tested distances. Standoff distance significantly impacts performance, with M855A1 being stopped at 200 yards.
