Shayetet – Bulletproof SAPI Level III+ Polyethylene Body Plate Armor ICW / STA

The “Shayetet” Level III+ Bulletproof Plate Body Armor is our top seller for Military and Professional Personnel. While our level III “Golani” is the most common body armor and considered as a NIJ std, the level III+ “Shayetet” body armor provides a higher level of threat protection without compromising much weight and maneuverability.
Produced in Israel, the “Shayetet” plate (mostly in its Stand Alone version) is a standard issue in the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) Elite units.

Constructed of advanced Polyethylene composites, this body armor plate was designed and manufactured with professional end users in mind providing both solid protection against a wide variety of rounds alongside a very lightweight and ergonomic structure.

The “Shayetet” durable construction and choice of materials provide not only excellent frag mitigation properties but also make the plate Multi-hit allowing it to absorb up to six rounds before failing. Along with its Multi Curve structure, and battle proven reputation, we believe this plate provides the best value for our professional segment users!

The materials chosen for the production of the “Shayetet” plate (high-molecular weight fiber that’s pound for pound is 15 times stronger than steel) make it one of the most lightweight yet durable solutions in the market.
The geometry of this ballistic plate – (Multi Curved Structure) ensures a perfect fit to the human torso and provides a top tier ergonomic solution.

Level III+ “Shayetet” armor plates will withstand impact from all handgun calibers. These body armor plates also defeat rifle rounds up to 7.62 x 51 M80 and 7.62×39 MSC (Mild Steel Core), along with light armor piercing (AP) projectiles, such as the 5.56 x 45 (M855).
