This package combines the protective performance of Level IIIA body armor with the fast-adjust, mission-ready structure of the ARARAT 2.1 Rapid Plate Carrier and the added utility of a kangaroo pouch configuration.
Built for professional field use, security operations, tactical training, and demanding protective applications, the package offers a balanced solution for users who require both mobility and reliable ballistic coverage. The ARARAT 2.1 Rapid platform supports a secure fit, modular setup options, and stable carry during active movement, while the kangaroo pouch improves front-load organization and access to essential gear.
With durable materials, ergonomic construction, and operational versatility, this package delivers a ready-to-use protective setup for users looking for practical, professional-grade performance in one complete system.
Ballistic Protection Level: NIJ Level IIIA — protects against common handgun threats including 7.65 mm, 9 mm, .45 CAL, .44 Magnum, .357 Magnum, and .38 Special calibers.
Material: Constructed from high-strength ballistic fabrics such as Aramid and Polyethylene for dependable impact resistance and long-term durability.
Design: Lightweight and ergonomic soft armor structure helps maintain comfort, mobility, and secure integration with the carrier platform.
Certification: Independently tested under NIJ 0101.06 protocol for verified ballistic performance at Level IIIA.
Multi-Hit Capability: Tested for multi-hit performance under NIJ 0101.06 protocol. Each impact dissipates energy through the panel structure; repeated strikes at the exact same point may reduce localized performance.
Backface Deformation (BFS): Tested below the NIJ 0101.06 maximum allowable limit of 44 mm. A reduced backface signature limits blunt-force trauma transferred to the wearer at the moment of impact.
Mobility: Flexible armor panels support unrestricted movement without compromising protective capability.
Post-Impact Service: Panels that have absorbed a recorded hit, sustained a hard drop, or shown surface damage should be inspected by a qualified technician and replaced if structural integrity is compromised — internal damage is not always visible from the outside.
Integrated Protection Setup: Combines Level IIIA ballistic protection with the ARARAT 2.1 Rapid platform in one complete package.
Front Storage Capability: Kangaroo pouch configuration provides practical front-mounted organization for essential mission gear.
Rapid Deployment: Fast-adjust carrier structure supports quick donning and secure fit in time-sensitive situations.
Operational Comfort: Ergonomic construction helps maintain stability and comfort during extended wear.
Modular Capability: MOLLE/PALS-compatible platform supports accessory placement and mission-based customization.
Professional Use: Suitable for security personnel, tactical users, training applications, and protective operational environments.
