The Patriot Armor IIIA Plate is so unbelievably light and thin, you will forget you’re wearing it. At 0.82 pounds per square foot, these lightweights perform like heavyweights.
Forged from a proprietary manufacturing process, the IIIA Plate is constructed with some of the strongest and lightest ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers available.
Our UHMWPE fibers are stronger than steel at a fraction of the weight.
