We’ve taken our Level III Body Armor to a NEW level! Spartan Armor Systems™ is pleased to introduce our AR550 Body Armor!  With a 10% increase in ballistic core hardness, our level III+ AR550 armor defeats higher velocity threats such as XM193, M855, and M80! We’re special rifle threat validated! Our AR550 armor hits the “sweet spot” in the Brinnell Hardness (BHN) range. With a core hardness of approximately 545-560 BHN, we have found our  ballistically rated variant of AR550 that we use is perfect for defeating higher velocity threats, while not exposing the armor plate to extreme stress due to forming. Our AR550 Level III+ armor has our GEN2 lower cut radius. With a 10% increase in core hardness, this ballistic grade steel is much harder than AR500, but not too hard to cause severe stress while forming. With higher velocity rifle threats commonly present throughout the United States, we’ve developed this AR550 armor to specifically defeat some common threats such as 5.56 x 45 XM193, 5.56 x 45 M855 /SS109 and 7.62 x 51 (.308 Winchester) at a rated velocity of 3,100 fps or less. Additionally, we’ve successfully defeated these threat profiles from Close Quarters Battle (CQB) distances…repeatedly! Chest Plate Weight (per plate):   10x12 AR550 Shooters Cut: Base Coat 8lbs 6oz. Side Plate Weight (per plate):    6×6 approximately 2lbs 12.8oz (base coat) Due to popular demand, we have added a “base coat” only option for our Spartan™ Omega™ AR500 Body Armor products. The base coat option has an extremely thin layer of our fragmentation mitigation coating to aesthetically enhance the plates and to provide corrosion resistance. This coating has minimal, if any, fragmentation mitigation capabilities.   Fits these Sizes: M L XL Chest Size (in.) 38" - 40" 42" - 44" 46" - 48" Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) - US Export Regulations: Level III and IV rifle rated body armor (Rifle Plates) fall under jurisdiction of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), and are subject to the export control laws of the US Government.
