Materials and Construction
The ballistic insert is made of UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber) and housed in a Cordura 500D cover with an anti-infrared (NIR) coating. This combination provides increased strength, wear resistance, and reduced visibility in the infrared spectrum, which is important for field operating conditions.
