Designed to upgrade your existing IIIA-rated vest, this high-performance ICW plate pairs tough silicon carbide ceramic with lightweight HPPE—turning handgun defense into armor-piercing rifle protection, no need to replace your gear.

Product Overview

The S-4E250300IIIA is a smart solution for pros who already own a IIIA tactical vest but need more protection. It works with your IIIA vest (not alone) to hit NIJ 0101.06 Level IV standards—filling the gap between handgun-only defense and full IV-level rifle resistance. Made with silicon carbide ceramic (to stop 穿甲 rounds) and HPPE (to keep it light), it balances robust protection with the comfort you need for all-day patrols or high-risk ops. Whether you’re responding to an armed incident with high-powered rifles or guarding a high-value site, it lets you leverage your existing gear while stepping up your safety.

Core Advantages: Upgrade Your Vest, Not Replace It

1. Silicon Carbide + HPPE: Stop Armor-Piercing Rounds

  • Silicon Carbide Ceramic: Ultra-hard and compression-resistant, it’s built to shatter high-velocity armor-piercing (AP) rounds—specifically 7.62x63mm M2 AP (the heavy-duty military round used in M1 Garand rifles). It soaks up the extreme kinetic energy these threats carry, something lower-grade plates can’t handle.

  • HPPE: Keeps the plate light (2.50kg total) for an ICW Level IV option—way lighter than clunky all-ceramic alternatives. It adds structural toughness too, so you can wear it for 8+ hour shifts without fatigue, and it fits right into most IIIA vest carriers.

2. 600D Oxford Cover: Tough for Real-World Use

The outer 600D black Oxford fabric isn’t just a layer—it’s a shield for the plate’s core. It’s water-resistant (no seepage in rain or damp fields), flame-retardant (safe around accidental sparks), and scratch-proof. Tactical movement, gear transport, or long storage—this cover keeps the ceramic and HPPE intact, so the plate performs reliably, even in rough conditions.

3. Single Curve Design: Fits Your IIIA Vest Perfectly

Its single-curve shape lines up with the natural contour of your torso (chest/back), so it slides into your IIIA vest’s plate pockets without gaps. No pressure points during all-day wear, and it doesn’t restrict movement—you can bend, run, or handle equipment like normal. It’s slim enough to wear under tactical outerwear, too.

Protection Performance

  • ICW Upgrade Power: When paired with your IIIA vest, it jumps from stopping handguns (9mm, .44 Magnum) to blocking armor-piercing rifle rounds—all without replacing your existing gear. This is a cost-effective win for teams or individuals who can’t afford new full IV-level vests.

  • Proven AP Stopping Power: Rigorously tested at 15 meters (the distance most high-threat engagements happen) to reliably stop 7.62x63mm M2 AP—one of the most challenging rounds for lower-level ballistic protection.

  • Consistent Reliability: The silicon carbide’s uniform density and HPPE’s shock absorption mean it won’t fail unexpectedly. When you need it to hold against an AP round, it holds.

Applicable Scenarios

This plate is made for pros who want to upgrade their IIIA vest:

  • Law Enforcement Officers: Perfect for patrols or responding to armed incidents involving high-powered rifles (e.g., M1 Garand, modified AR-15s).

  • Private Security Personnel: Ideal for guarding high-risk sites (banks, data centers) or high-value assets where AP threats exist.

  • Military Support Staff: Great for non-combat roles (base security, supply runs) in regions with elevated rifle risks.

  • Civilian Contractors: Suitable for work in areas with moderate-to-high ballistic hazards, where a IIIA vest alone isn’t enough.
