SRT 2.5 lbs Multi-curve Armor Plates

Tacticon Armament’s SRT (Special Rifle Threat) is a lightweight armor made from UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene), weighing just 2.57 lbs. It is designed to protect against threats not traditionally tested under the NIJ .06 standard. The SRT plate keeps your load light while defeating common rifle rounds like the 5.56 M193 (AR-15) and 7.62×39 (AK-47). Tested to withstand 6 shots from either round, it maintains trauma within safe limits. This standalone plate requires no additional layers to mitigate impact trauma.

Why SRT and not Level III?

Level III plates are tested to stop 7.62×51 (M80) rounds with strict trauma limits, typically resulting in heavier, thicker armor. Our SRT plate, however, focuses on more common threats like 5.56 and 7.62×39, allowing for a lighter, thinner design without sacrificing protection.

Will it stop 7.62×51 (M80)?

Yes, the SRT plate will prevent penetration, but the backface trauma may exceed the 44mm safety limit, which is why we don’t classify it as Level III.

Is it multi-hit capable?

Absolutely. The SRT plate is designed to withstand 6 shots of M193 or 7.62×39 MSC while keeping trauma under 44mm, ensuring multi-hit protection.
