Woman's Soft Ballistic Panel Specifically Designed to Fit Female Bodies
FULDA, GERMANY (29 November 2022)
Today we are announcing the launch of our newest product: the Woman’s Soft Ballistic Panel.
Constructed to fit the female body, the Woman’s Soft Ballistic Panel is a step-change for female operators in the line of duty.
Mehler’s Woman’s Soft Ballistic Panel is among the lightest such products currently on the market. The version rated VPAM 3 (weight without “point-blank” shot) weighs approximately 3.1 kg/per sqm, while the version rated SK1 (weight including “point-blank” shot) weighs approximately 3.6 kg/per sqm.
Thomas Homberg, CEO of Mehler Systems, previously recognized as Mehler Vario System,
“The perfect fit of their protection system is an essential criterion for operators, who must focus on their demanding missions without being distracted. Mehler Woman Soft Ballistic Panel provides an outstanding ballistic lightweight protection combined with an unmatched comfort for the female operator. The panel is different from other available conventional ballistic panels for women. It is based on a new production process, enabling us to offer anatomically moulded panels for a seamless and streamlined fit.”
Due to innovative ballistic materials and novel processing, the soft ballistic panel withstand the threats of up to VPAM 3 or SK1. Other protection classes are available upon request.
Additionally, the panel can be combined with most other Mehler Systems vest models. It can also be upgraded with a shaped shock absorber to reduce the depth of trauma.
