Body armour is known to save lives, and it is not easy to choose from the best of available options. Before choosing armour, the purpose of using it should be clear in the first place. Consider the perceived threats before buying the armour and the level of protection that you may need. Be battle-ready with the understanding and keeping yourself…
Helmets are one of the oldest protective elements to keep you safe from various threats along the way. Today, with an increased number of crimes and weaponry related accidents, threat protection helmets have quite a long way. Body armours made of ballistic protection armour materials and ballistic helmets are one of the major requirements in the military. Whether you’re overseas…
The military, being a genuine meritocracy, tries to treat everyone the same. When you have women in the military and you’ve finally reached a point where they’re so important as a population that the military couldn’t go to war without them, you have to start paying more attention.

The army is no exception to the use of new technologies in all aspects of human existence. It’s been difficult to develop a full-body armour that fits the requirements of soldiers. The Exoskeleton protective system is one of the coolest innovations among modern armour systems. For so long, powered exoskeleton manufacturers have been frustrated by technological impediments. The processing necessary…
TBIs on the battlefield are mostly caused by ballistic impacts and exposure to shock waves from explosions. The use of high-explosive materials has recently increased the frequency of blast Traumatic Brain Injuries (bTBI) among military personnel and civilians. Insights into the mechanisms of TBI and brain damage thresholds is critical for understanding the influence of ballistic helmets and padding systems…
We live in troubled times, and it would be a mistake to imagine that the past was peaceful. Throughout history, various cultures developed personal protection equipment such as body armours to defend their people during times of strife.
