About the manufacturer and purpose

Manufacturer: Global Ballistics
Product type: Military equipment > Soft ballistic protection > Class 1 protection

The panels are designed as part of the cummerbund for BOGUNKA plate carriers and are intended for quick installation and replacement in the field. They optimize the balance between protection and mobility, which is important for tactical units, security teams, and civilian services.

Key features

• DSTU protection class: Class 1 (protection against fragments, blast waves, and short-barreled weapons — 9×18 mm Makarov and Luger pistols)
• Weight: 350 g (one panel)
• Dimensions: wide part height - 21 cm, length - 40 cm (overall dimensions 21×40 cm)
• Material: UHMWPE (ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene)
• Set: 2 pcs. — a set for both sides of the plate carrier

UHMWPE provides high penetration resistance with minimal weight, allowing the side panels to effectively dissipate the energy of fragments and bullets in accordance with DSTU Class 1 requirements. The 21×40 cm dimensions are optimized to cover the side surface of the torso without excessive protrusion or restriction of movement, maintaining the ergonomics of the BOGUNKA plate carrier.

Compared to rigid side plates, soft armor panels are lighter and more comfortable for extended wear, making them a practical choice for mobile operations, patrolling, and tasks where speed and maneuverability are important. Installing the panels in the cummerbund allows adapting the protection depending on the task — quickly adding or removing a protective element.

By choosing Global Ballistics side ballistic soft armor panels, you get a proven technical solution with Ukrainian specifications and compliance with DSTU standards, which guarantees the stated protection performance and durability. The set of 2 panels is ideal for full side protection of the BOGUNKA plate carrier of extended size.
