Bulletproof vests Ukraine

.

In addition to the mobilization of several generations Ukrainians, it has now become clear that everyone gets a Kalashnikov as basic equipment, however, body armor is rarely given. In many cases, citizens must by themselves provide for their own bulletproof vest, but the quality of the Ukraine bulletproof vests appears to be substandard. Although the Ukrainian industry deploys all means to try to provide the best possible quality, certain strategic raw materials are difficult or limited available to manufacture good bullet-proof vests.

.

To date, Ukraine still belongs not to the European Union, by which a free trade with Ukraine is still excluded. Only through an official license from the Flemish Government can bullet proof vests be supplied to Ukraine, but experience teaches us that a permit issued by the Flemish Government can take easily 6 to 12 months to complete. For the rest apply the strict rules of arms exports. In any case, it is not currently allowed to send body armor to Ukraine!

Residents of the Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg), for personal protection, a bullet-proof vest purchases to travel to dangerous areas. As a parent, one can purchase a bulletproof vest for his children, but you remain responsible that the provisions should be respected from the end-user statement. The only way to get the body armor in Ukraine is to take them as personal protection to Ukraine. Remember that a cheap airline ticket Brussels - Kiev only cost between 250 to 300 Euros.

.

In principle, it is permitted that one single bullet proof vest per person may be taken as personal protection. If one takes more vests than one vest, customs starts from the position that these vests are intended for further sale. This is not allowed! We also note that, according to the Flemish legislation a bulletproof vest for personal protection may not be delivered to terrorists or paramilitaries. So, just as a personal protection of civilians!

Various sources out Ukraine report that the used hard ballistic plates cannot withstand the bullets from sniper rifles. However, we note that the usual hard ballistic plates NIJ-3 only are suitable to stop old ammunition with a soft lead core. Today, this ammunition is by modern armies no longer used and is replaced by steel core bullets. To stop such a steel core bullet one needs at least a 4 NIJ body armor!

.

We have two types of hard ballistic plates that can stop the steel core bullets of snipers rifles.

.

The hard ballistic plates NIJ-4 Conj. should always be used together with a soft ballistic package NIJ-3A (04). In case of an impact of a bullet on the hard ballistic plate, the bullet breaks and is deformed into a nugget of steel and lead. This clump pierces through the hard ballistic plate and is then catches by the soft ballistic package. This impact of the bullet can cause a trauma injury (bruise), but is basically harmless.

.

.The hard ballistic plates NIJ-4 Stand Alone are thicker, but can stop a bullet without him going through the ballistic plate. So it is not important what you wear under these hard ballistic Stand Alone plates, given the bullet remains in the plate. No trauma wound after the impact of a bullet.

.

To protect citizens against snipers it may be important that one can wear the NIJ-4 body armor concealed under clothing.
