Hi Matt. I worked at a company that tested vests. We used a clay backing to evaluate the deflection of the vests. At impact the clay permanently deformed so you could see the total movement even when the vest bounced back. Quite remarkable how much deflection some rounds caused on some vests. Please consider for your future videos.
well then... what if there was a deflection angle built into the vests? what if both sides were coated with rhino truck bed liner to keep the fragmenting plates more intact?
he has been made aware and has done it in some videos, but its just hard to do a lot of the time, and he would need a lot of clay making the place muddy when it rains
Can we get a commercial plate test? Like all the leading commercial plate brands to see who has the best plate. Taking in consideration of weight to stopping power.
Matt a Russian 5a is roughly equivalent to US level 3, the wiki says its good for 3 hits of 7.62x39 incendiary and regular gost 5 is good for 3 hits of 7.62x51
Pop carried a M1 Garand from Normandy, through the Battle of the Bulge into Germany before they captured him and took it. He bought a Commemorative BoB rifle years ago (which I still have). It's actually a Winchester 70 "Featherweight". They made them in BB, .22, and .30-06. I was standing there when he ordered it and he looked at me. I said: ".30-06 or nothing"! He had already ordered it. Too bad his health failed and he passed in 2015 before we got to fire it. 😭
I will have a drink in honor of your pop. I grew up learning to shoot with an M1, and its still the rifle I have put the most rounds through. Its a great rifle.
In Russian armor standards blunt damage is taken into account. So if a plate stops a sertain bullet, but solider gets a massive trauma, like here with 30-06 ap, it is classified as not protecting from that bullet. That's why this plate is sertified only against 7.63x39 while being able to hold much larger caliber shot
@@outspokenguy3834 Not so much, there is no reason to issue assault armor kits for RU guys in UA, because they were meant for special operation groups like GRU or FSB breaching squads, and seriously hamper mobility, and in the real war mobility is key to survive an artillery firing at you for example. If you had a heavy ass full-cover vest with armored hands and legs which anti-explosive personal do wear, you obviously couldnt run in that thing
All the desperate effort to degrade Russia bounces off your head. Now the whole world can see how NATO's equipment and weapons are inferior to Russia's. Which even NATO officers admit, the fact that they lag behind Russian technology.
You know the man takes his job seriously at the 10 minute mark..... He nailed the goptic thing solid. Absolute pure gold from the addias track suit to the the flat footed crouch. Amazing work.
"Level 5" refers to the GOST standard, which is the russian equivalent to the American NIJ standard. GOST level 5 means it will protect against 7.62x54r and below. It's similar to NIJ level 3.
"GOST" is an entire standards system, similar to NIST, STANAG or ISO. "5A" marking on the Russian plate specifically references the document GOST R 50744-95 that defined Russian-made body armor from 1995 to 2014 in its original version. This incidentally dates this plate as pre-'14 manufacture. 5A is actually supposed to protect you from anything up to and including 7.62*39 BZ (armor-piercing incendiary) out of an AKM from 5-10m range. *54R protection was defined as level 6\6A under the old GOST. New, post-'14 amendment to GOST R 50744-95 defines a different rating system, in which such a plate falls under Br4 class. These specific plates are currently issued as part of Ratnik kit to basic bitch infantry, indirect combatants and pretty much anyone who merits an armor vest in Russian army. Assault troops and special guys either get Br5 Granit plates, rated up to 7.62*54R B32 AP rounds, or commercial Br5 plates to better fit their gucci gear. Also, GOST R 50744-95 defines protection class for an entire assembled armor vest, not just the plates. Granit isn't supposed to be a standalone plate (although many run it that way in lower-profile commercial plate carriers), it's supposed to go on top of Br1-rated kevlar layer.
Did the soviets really do the “America says “fuck the metric system except if it’s to build rockets or make bullets. One for liability reasons. The other because fuck you. Lol” but with the NIJ system. Which is used by most American Allie’s to rate their body armor lol
@@TemptationsEnd nah a lot of countries technically have their own system. The US military technically has their own system too, different from NIJ. That’s why Matt calls the Military plate a SAAPI plate,
@@TemptationsEnd No, not really. We just have a different threat landscape, different military doctrine and an entire metric-based index system full of calibers we make, use and export. It makes sense for us to rate our armor against our own weapons and ammo. Also, most of "American Allies" have their own body armor rating systems, and AFAIK there's no STANAG standard for armor, just a couple of US DoD program designations like SAPI\ESAPI\XSAPI that most NATO armor manufacturers decided to follow for marketing clarity. NIJ is a civilian\police organization and has no place rating everyone's armor. It's just that their rating system is what US market is most familiar with, so anyone trying to sell plates in US must define their product against it or risk not being understood by customers. Capitalism, eh.
@@gratefulguy4130 negative, a Weatherby Mark five 300 blackout in a Weatherby Mark 5 30-06 are only distinguished by the 30 ought 6 or the blackout written on the side. They are in fact different rifles, everybody tends to use the 308. If an armored can stop through a weight they usually step right up to 50 or something crazy but they always skip the 30 ought 6.

@@SteveSiegelin lol what dude? In all that word salad you never refuted what I said. In fact, certain guns having a .30-06 version just reinforces what I said. .30-06 is the cartridge, not the gun.. and there is a big difference between .30-06 and .300BLK.
Matt, the Granite 5A plate is used only as part of a bulletproof vest in which Kevlar is located. So flying fragments, a bullet shirt are not terrible for a fighter, everything will remain inside the bulletproof vest.
@@bodenolson6745 I have a full 6b43 vest. It is indeed a full cut vest but the way the cumberbund is fashioned its pretty maneuverable. Full cuts are what you would want in WoRlD wAr, arguably, because shrapnel.
Most American units won’t let you wear your own plate carrier, you are always gonna have a Kevlar vest holding the plate. Of course a lot of guys take the Kevlar out of their vests…
it would actually be interesting to see if you used ballistic torsos to see how hurt somebody gets with a vest on. What I mean is, even with a vest, would the ribs puncture any vital organs?
I would love to see these tests on some ballistic labs torsos to see just how many cracked ribs and collapsed lungs one would suffer from a successful stoppage. But as a wise man once said: "You have to be still alive to bitch about the pain..."
I agree it would be nice to see how much damage the body takes from the concussion of being ounched that hard. Regardless of the outcome it is still better than one of those rounds tearing through your chest.
Yes, they would! Especially the 30-06! No hole doesn’t mean no problem! They need to make a vest that fixes that along with spalling-proofing the vests. If there is one please let me know!
Russian and American armor specifications are different. The Russian one, by Russian standards, wasnt designed for a rifle caliber, but it was able to withstand it This has already been said in the comments, but my point is that I would like to see a comparison of modern armor plates
Damn russia is scary as army the second powerful army in the world after Usa but for me usa and russia are at the same level in army stuff and also russia has 5300 nukes 💀
It's worth noting that every single issued vest, be it the old as dirt IBAs, IOTVs, SPCS and new MSVs all come with Kevlar backers, and both SAPI and ESAPI standards were designed with that Kevlar backer being integral to getting the full performance out of the plate. It's one of the reason a lot of normal army units don't allow their troops to use non-issued vests, because most of the issued vests use Kevlar inserts that don't fit commercially available plate carriers.
Russian and American were different protection level plates. Russian one used to have 5A/BR4 (old/new Russian classification) class - designed to handle Intermediate 7,62×39 AP cartridge (I think it's something average NIJ 3 and NIJ 3A, closer to 3). While SAPI had NIJ 4, must handle 7.62×63 AP, rifle cartridge. So, the last shot, by Garand, was overload to Russian - it is not design to handle rifle bullets. For objective test, compareable plates are Russian 6A/BR5 - 7.62×54 AP and SAPI you tested, or what you had with NIJ 3.
you are not quite right, the Russian 5a is not br4, but br5, which already corresponds to the American 4th class, and the 3rd class of American armor holds rifle bullets, even if not armor-piercing. That is, it should withstand 7.62x54 R
Honestly, the Russian one using small ceramic plates instead of a single big piece of ceramic makes it hold up a lot better under repeated hits, but as far as stopping, they do seem pretty close to each other.
@@thatguy46744 did we see same video? When the Russian plate was hit in the same place it stopped but deformed slightly, American went straight through. Idk about you but I would rather a broken rib than a bullet wound. Other than that they performed very similar. Either would be fine.
@@michaelthrockmorton5783 you blind? No. The american one stopped 30-06 completely and didnt deform. And btw 300 went through both of them and only stopped in the civilian plate.
The Russian plate, presented in this video, is a part of the complex with an antirrexoshete package and shock absorber plate behind. So this is made to keep the balance between weight and protection.
But who cares? russia already has a huge lack of body armor and helmets. Doesn't matter is this armor good or bad, if only one dude out of ten can get it
The armor is supposed to be inside a vest with a Kevlar backing . If your going to test armor do it right. Get an actual vest. I've met guys who have been hit more than 5 times by 7.62x51mm rounds from a damn machine gun and survived. The plate was done after that but still.
Ya gotta ask your buds at the ballistics gel lab to see how big of a block of gel they can make…. I’m talking like a 6 foot thicc block of gel, and shoot all kinds of calibers into it! Could make for a cool art piece if a bunch of bullets are stuck in there with the bullets and their wound channels.
So speaking about the issue with the russian plate and spalling, the Russian vest 6B45/6B43 have a kevlar liner and kevlar neck protecters that would help the soldier from spalling.
problem is when they start issuing theyr troops with airsoft replica plate carriers made from cheap fabric ... then that lack of spalling protection on the plates themselves becomes BIG issue...
@@Asghaad yeah, another sad fact is Russian soldiers ran out of ammo months ago and they're just fighting with shovels now. Remember, it's FACTS because I say so.
5 GOST class is something near to NIJ 4. 5A means that it is designed to protect against special 7.62x39 armor-piercing-incendiary bullets. Also 5 class must protect against shot from SVD at a distance of 10 m. There is also 6 class. GOST says that 6 class body armor must sustain shot from 12,7 ОСВ-96 at 50 m.
@@deanomalley4246 And 12,7 osv caliber is EQUAL to .50 BMG, sir. Half of an inch is 12,7 mm. Their mass, speed and energy are also in the same league. 7Н34 has hardened steel core, so (I suppose) it combines mk262 and mk263.

@@ПавелПлавский-ы5щ ГОСТ 34286-2017, все возражения - к его составителям. Касаемо "немного мощнее", имеет значение не только количество пороха, но и его характеристики.

Такие характеристики 12,7x108 может достигать "при использовании более современного вида пороха, с достаточно высокой насыпной плотностью". Даже если он "в перспективе при возможном дальнейшем развитии" достигнет обещанных 20,4 -20,6 кДж, то эта разница в 400-600 укладывается в погрешность на таких масштабах. Что до энергетики "основных" патронов M33, то тут выигрыш за 12,7x108 на те же несколько сотен Джоулей. Я считаю, что различие в 2-4% вполне позволяет мне использовать слово "EQUAL".
For 100% clean result, you should show the stamp on the back side of the russian plate because they are different)) It can be standard 5A ( modern Бр-4) or assault 6A ( modern Бр-5) Standart 5A has less protection level and acts like on the video. Assault 6A, stand alone plate and protect against 6 (six) russian AP 7Н13 and 7-БЗ-3 (3,3-3,6 kJ ) with "convex" not bigger than 20 mm. 5A plates should be used with Kevlar soft armor like (NIJ AIII) and 30 mm shock absorber/climate plate It was a standard 5A plate on your video. IMHO
Alot of the older Russian armor uses the GOST scaling system and goes up-to 6 levels (or 9 if you take into account the "A" variants for 2A, 5A and 6A) compared to 5, the NIJ that the USA uses. The newer Russian Armor uses a revivsed BR1-6 which is updated for more modern ammo.
@N BD ikr..they're not taking into account that every american soldier mostly all of them have good armor while a good chunk if not most of the russian military has literally nothing...
Hi, This class 5a plate has not been produced from Russia for a long time, it is very old and stops no more than 7.62. if you wanted to compare the armor plates, then take the existing ones and not those that have already been decommissioned for a very long time.

Uhm bud, you do realize that Level 4 plates will stop every type of 7.62x39mm round right? It's rated to stop upwards of AP .30-06 moving at upwards of 2900fps which is higher than any of the 7.62x39 rounds you mentioned.
Could we see the same armor tested at different distances? I would love to see how much of a difference it makes between close range and even just 100 yards.
Russians have plates with 10 degrees of protection, and you have an old plate from 2014, try to buy a new one. because it turns out that this plate is considered light
Hi Matt! I am writing to you from Siberia and in fairness I must say that the Russian armor plate you had was lower in rank than the other two. Our countries have different standards and markings of armor plates) And when a large bulge appeared in it, it should not have been able to withstand that shot at all. And so me and my pet bear love to watch your videos, especially the promo for them at the beginning) Good luck to you and the well-being of your family, my American friend! P.S. At the moment where you were shooting with a Kalashnikov in a tracksuit squatting - me and my bears rode through the woods laughing until the evening :D
Напишусашибками штоб ани нипонили. Эта лудший каминтарий. Передавай привет своим медведям мой друг, надеюсь сегодня у вас уже тепло и температура поднялась до -50
The Russian armor plate has not been used with us since 2007. At the same time, it was transferred to the fourth, and if I am not mistaken, then the general level of protection in Russia is from 1 to 10 and now it holds level 4 up to svd
Yeah I think we have all just come to take for granted Matt's skills. After years of watching these videos we all just expect he is gonna hit most things.
awesome video again. I only wish that you'd have 2 of each plate so by the time you get to the round it is rated for you can swap to a fresh plate.. that would eliminate the question of if the plate is just too degraded to stop anything else after 3 rounds already.
I was just thinking that and wanted to see if anyone else had said it yet. I think it would only be right to compare like that but then again I'm sure they don't have extra armor when they go out in the fights to swap after they get hit a few times. I'm sure once they go back to base they might.
What would’ve been really interesting to see would’ve been him taping all three plates together, messed up as they were, and then shooting them with the 50 BMG. 💯💯
if your average frontline russian soldier is wearing whatever 5A is, does not seem to be protecting them from grenade dropping drones... i LOVE those videos.
Would love to see an IOTV with plates vs an IBA with plates. My IOTV saved my life on multiple times over including a throat shot from green on green during training involving 5.56 leaving no mark on me. Individual Operater Tactical Vest is the current USArmy standard body Armour and the Individual Body Armour was the prior less coverage often given to nonfront line personnel currently. Both vs plate carriers would be good well, mobility vs protection.
Is that the old IOTV name? Bc my old tag read improved outer tactical vest now. Also was that with all the extra stuff that it comes with like the neck protector? I’m glad you’re alr that accident sounds awful
You got shot on the neck but it hit the neck yoke with a 5.56? Not a chance that “it didn’t leave a mark” on you. Anything outside the front, read, and side plates doesn’t stop rifle rounds. A 5.56 round will go through soft body armor like butter
Thats one of the reason why you need these extra protectors. If you got shot on the chest , There are possibility that the bullet would actually go to your throat or shoulder. Thoes 30 layers of kevlar inside could be very helpful against These weakend bullet rounds
Every time I’m having a bad day I turn your channel on for my daily gun fix and you constantly make me laugh. Your awesome keep up the excellent content 👍❤️
If you check Russian ГОСТ Р 50744-95, you will find out that 5А (that is Russian letter her) is equal to US level 4. And this plate is kind of old, they are out of stock, but there are other 5А plates in stock right now.
13:30 No one ever uses such plates without a shrapnel catching layer of kevlar tuck to it from both sides, so it's not a problem really. It makes production much cheaper to not make kevlar integrated, though. And also you can easily replace kevlar after getting a hit this way!
What benefit does being able to replace the kevlar have? If you get shot you're replacing both the plate and the kevlar anyway. Edit: Plus if the kevlar is integrated into the plate then why would you have to wear more kevlar? If anything it would cost more having to make the kevlar separate because I'm sure it's in its own little protective cover rather than it being in the plate and not needing another piece of fabric with another branding logo and ballistic info printed on it. Probably not much more but idk how it could be any cheaper.
No dude, once you get yeeted and you do walk away from the yeet, you replace the whole vest, Kevlar and plates.. there is no place to be cheap. It called antispalnding on the plates, and believe it or not, some people cheap out and only run a plate carrier..
Wee idea about the “punching force” experienced from different rounds hitting armour to see what kinda force they’ll be feeling, can somehow think of a way to measure the pressure exerted by the plate backwards into the body Would be kinda cool to see imo
It shouldn't be that hard really. Just take one of those AR500 shooting targets and put it on a load cell then shoot. You can graph the force applied over time, and using some math determine the total forces acting on the plate. After adjusting for the mass of the steel plate (or just choosing one thats roughly equal to a normal body plate) you can simply look at the peak force to see what the experience would be like. Its going to be slightly less than just dumping the maximum energy right into the guy, as some will go to plate deformation (for ceramic plates at least, which is a big part of their function), some will go into your chest being compressed like a spring (thanks to your lungs and flexible skeletal structure), and the rest is going right into your bones and internal organs. Getting hit by 556 in the center of the plate probably feels like having a major league baseball pitcher aiming for your bare chest, and it might break some ribs. With 7.62x39/51 you are probably going to have one or more broken ribs.
8:07 correction: M855 have steel cores, but are not are not AP. The green tips are just paint to differentiate them from M193, because M855 requires a faster pitch of rifling (such as the 1:8 used by modern M16s/M4s) than the 1:12 that the old M16s used.
The M4 uses a 1:7 twist rate. M855 has a steel core that aids in armor penetration. M193 is a lighter weight round (55gr) and can be stabilized by slower twist rates like the 1:12 used by the M16A2 because of the longer barrel. The M4 has a shorter barrel and thus requires a faster twist rate in order to stabilize the same round. M855 was made to work better in a shorter barrel with a faster twist rate by using a heavier projectile (62gr) which is achieved through the use of a steel core. M855 fragments less reliably in the human body than M193 due to the higher velocity achieved and maintained by the lighter 55gr projectile.

In Russian armor standards blunt damage is taken into account. So if a plate stops a sertain bullet, but solider gets a massive trauma, like here with 30-06 ap, it is classified as not protecting from that bullet. That's why this plate is sertified only against 7.63x39 while being able to hold much larger caliber shot
Russia has plates which can stop full-sized rifle calibre.

Not so much, there is no reason to issue assault armor kits for RU guys in UA, because they were meant for special operation groups like GRU or FSB breaching squads, and seriously hamper mobility, and in the real war mobility is key to survive an artillery firing at you for example. If you had a heavy ass full-cover vest with armored hands and legs which anti-explosive personal do wear, you obviously couldnt run in that thing

"Level 5" refers to the GOST standard, which is the russian equivalent to the American NIJ standard. GOST level 5 means it will protect against 7.62x54r and below. It's similar to NIJ level 3.
That’s new GOST. Level 5A means it’s using the old GOST system, which is rated to stop API 7.62x39
"GOST" is an entire standards system, similar to NIST, STANAG or ISO. "5A" marking on the Russian plate specifically references the document GOST R 50744-95 that defined Russian-made body armor from 1995 to 2014 in its original version. This incidentally dates this plate as pre-'14 manufacture.
5A is actually supposed to protect you from anything up to and including 7.62*39 BZ (armor-piercing incendiary) out of an AKM from 5-10m range. *54R protection was defined as level 6\6A under the old GOST.
New, post-'14 amendment to GOST R 50744-95 defines a different rating system, in which such a plate falls under Br4 class. These specific plates are currently issued as part of Ratnik kit to basic bitch infantry, indirect combatants and pretty much anyone who merits an armor vest in Russian army. Assault troops and special guys either get Br5 Granit plates, rated up to 7.62*54R B32 AP rounds, or commercial Br5 plates to better fit their gucci gear.
Also, GOST R 50744-95 defines protection class for an entire assembled armor vest, not just the plates. Granit isn't supposed to be a standalone plate (although many run it that way in lower-profile commercial plate carriers), it's supposed to go on top of Br1-rated kevlar layer.
Did the soviets really do the “America says “fuck the metric system except if it’s to build rockets or make bullets. One for liability reasons. The other because fuck you. Lol” but with the NIJ system. Which is used by most American Allie’s to rate their body armor lol
@@TemptationsEnd nah a lot of countries technically have their own system. The US military technically has their own system too, different from NIJ. That’s why Matt calls the Military plate a SAAPI plate,
@@TemptationsEnd No, not really. We just have a different threat landscape, different military doctrine and an entire metric-based index system full of calibers we make, use and export. It makes sense for us to rate our armor against our own weapons and ammo.
Also, most of "American Allies" have their own body armor rating systems, and AFAIK there's no STANAG standard for armor, just a couple of US DoD program designations like SAPI\ESAPI\XSAPI that most NATO armor manufacturers decided to follow for marketing clarity.
NIJ is a civilian\police organization and has no place rating everyone's armor. It's just that their rating system is what US market is most familiar with, so anyone trying to sell plates in US must define their product against it or risk not being understood by customers. Capitalism, eh.

In all that word salad you never refuted what I said. In fact, certain guns having a .30-06 version just reinforces what I said.
.30-06 is the cartridge, not the gun.. and there is a big difference between .30-06 and .300BLK.
Matt, the Granite 5A plate is used only as part of a bulletproof vest in which Kevlar is located. So flying fragments, a bullet shirt are not terrible for a fighter, everything will remain inside the bulletproof vest.
The problem is that those systems are a lot bulkier, good point though.
@@bodenolson6745 I have a full 6b43 vest. It is indeed a full cut vest but the way the cumberbund is fashioned its pretty maneuverable. Full cuts are what you would want in WoRlD wAr, arguably, because shrapnel.

@samlepro3he isn’t wrong though.
Most American units won’t let you wear your own plate carrier, you are always gonna have a Kevlar vest holding the plate. Of course a lot of guys take the Kevlar out of their vests…
it would actually be interesting to see if you used ballistic torsos to see how hurt somebody gets with a vest on. What I mean is, even with a vest, would the ribs puncture any vital organs?
I would love to see these tests on some ballistic labs torsos to see just how many cracked ribs and collapsed lungs one would suffer from a successful stoppage.
But as a wise man once said: "You have to be still alive to bitch about the pain..."

It's worth noting that every single issued vest, be it the old as dirt IBAs, IOTVs, SPCS and new MSVs all come with Kevlar backers, and both SAPI and ESAPI standards were designed with that Kevlar backer being integral to getting the full performance out of the plate. It's one of the reason a lot of normal army units don't allow their troops to use non-issued vests, because most of the issued vests use Kevlar inserts that don't fit commercially available plate carriers.

Russian and American were different protection level plates. Russian one used to have 5A/BR4 (old/new Russian classification) class - designed to handle Intermediate 7,62×39 AP cartridge (I think it's something average NIJ 3 and NIJ 3A, closer to 3). While SAPI had NIJ 4, must handle 7.62×63 AP, rifle cartridge. So, the last shot, by Garand, was overload to Russian - it is not design to handle rifle bullets. For objective test, compareable plates are Russian 6A/BR5 - 7.62×54 AP and SAPI you tested, or what you had with NIJ 3.

On the Крупнокалиберный переполох channel, armor plates were also tested and the cheapest Chinese plate turned out to be the best
Matt is having to much fun in these videos😂
I love your impressions of some rifles 😅 just the adidas suit with the gun bat also those boots are just legendary 🙌👌 greets from germany ❤️🔥
"he doesn't need it anymore." what did you do matt💀💀💀💀
Would love to see an IOTV with plates vs an IBA with plates. My IOTV saved my life on multiple times over including a throat shot from green on green during training involving 5.56 leaving no mark on me. Individual Operater Tactical Vest is the current USArmy standard body Armour and the Individual Body Armour was the prior less coverage often given to nonfront line personnel currently. Both vs plate carriers would be good well, mobility vs protection.
Is that the old IOTV name? Bc my old tag read improved outer tactical vest now. Also was that with all the extra stuff that it comes with like the neck protector? I’m glad you’re alr that accident sounds awful
You got shot on the neck but it hit the neck yoke with a 5.56? Not a chance that “it didn’t leave a mark” on you. Anything outside the front, read, and side plates doesn’t stop rifle rounds. A 5.56 round will go through soft body armor like butter
@@lpwbeasty He probably meant clavicle
Thats one of the reason why you need these extra protectors. If you got shot on the chest , There are possibility that the bullet would actually go to your throat or shoulder. Thoes 30 layers of kevlar inside could be very helpful against These weakend bullet rounds
@@Seongbin-0 age old question of mobility vs protection though
Every time I’m having a bad day I turn your channel on for my daily gun fix and you constantly make me laugh. Your awesome keep up the excellent content 👍❤️
Even though the distances is not that great, you showed excellent marksmanship! Only us that fore weapons appreciate it!
The Russian plate from the roller, as far as I know, can withstand shots up to 7.62x39ps (not armor-piercing)
kinda funny that i know what ammo your talking about when you explained the difference between M855 and M855A1 rounds all because to tarkov
🤓
10:00 - My bear was laughing out loud on this moment. This was brilliant, Matt ))
Wow no one is talking about his accuracy!
If you check Russian ГОСТ Р 50744-95, you will find out that 5А (that is Russian letter her) is equal to US level 4. And this plate is kind of old, they are out of stock, but there are other 5А plates in stock right now.
All 3 plate models started breaking serious sweat when granpappie’s garand came to the table😂😂😂
Russian Armor stopped though, the American one zipped straight trough
13:30 No one ever uses such plates without a shrapnel catching layer of kevlar tuck to it from both sides, so it's not a problem really. It makes production much cheaper to not make kevlar integrated, though. And also you can easily replace kevlar after getting a hit this way!
Nice was about to comment that
cope
that makes sense, i thought thats a big downside for russia but if you design the plate carrier correctly it can fix that
What benefit does being able to replace the kevlar have? If you get shot you're replacing both the plate and the kevlar anyway. Edit: Plus if the kevlar is integrated into the plate then why would you have to wear more kevlar? If anything it would cost more having to make the kevlar separate because I'm sure it's in its own little protective cover rather than it being in the plate and not needing another piece of fabric with another branding logo and ballistic info printed on it. Probably not much more but idk how it could be any cheaper.
No dude, once you get yeeted and you do walk away from the yeet, you replace the whole vest, Kevlar and plates.. there is no place to be cheap.
It called antispalnding on the plates, and believe it or not, some people cheap out and only run a plate carrier..
"We can't tell you how did we get this Russian armor, but he didn't need it anymore 💀
Wee idea about the “punching force” experienced from different rounds hitting armour to see what kinda force they’ll be feeling, can somehow think of a way to measure the pressure exerted by the plate backwards into the body
Would be kinda cool to see imo
☝️☝️CONGRATULATIONS, YOU WON A PRIZE
DM THE DIGITS ABOVE 💬
Maybe one of those scales that measures how hard a baseball is thrown but the plate is put up against it?
Pretty sure Matt has a video on that with a ballistic gel torso :)
@@MisterRiguy aw really, can you remember the name of the video?
It shouldn't be that hard really. Just take one of those AR500 shooting targets and put it on a load cell then shoot. You can graph the force applied over time, and using some math determine the total forces acting on the plate. After adjusting for the mass of the steel plate (or just choosing one thats roughly equal to a normal body plate) you can simply look at the peak force to see what the experience would be like. Its going to be slightly less than just dumping the maximum energy right into the guy, as some will go to plate deformation (for ceramic plates at least, which is a big part of their function), some will go into your chest being compressed like a spring (thanks to your lungs and flexible skeletal structure), and the rest is going right into your bones and internal organs. Getting hit by 556 in the center of the plate probably feels like having a major league baseball pitcher aiming for your bare chest, and it might break some ribs. With 7.62x39/51 you are probably going to have one or more broken ribs.
8:07 correction: M855 have steel cores, but are not are not AP. The green tips are just paint to differentiate them from M193, because M855 requires a faster pitch of rifling (such as the 1:8 used by modern M16s/M4s) than the 1:12 that the old M16s used.
The M4 uses a 1:7 twist rate. M855 has a steel core that aids in armor penetration. M193 is a lighter weight round (55gr) and can be stabilized by slower twist rates like the 1:12 used by the M16A2 because of the longer barrel. The M4 has a shorter barrel and thus requires a faster twist rate in order to stabilize the same round. M855 was made to work better in a shorter barrel with a faster twist rate by using a heavier projectile (62gr) which is achieved through the use of a steel core. M855 fragments less reliably in the human body than M193 due to the higher velocity achieved and maintained by the lighter 55gr projectile.
I like how a bulletproof plate, rated at level 4, says handle with care. Be careful guys, don’t shoot it haha
I'd imagine cause they have ceramic in em so you don't end up accidentally breaking that before use
I'm from Russia and almost everyone in our country wears a bulletproof vest so that the bear doesn't bite you while you're asleep
When Matt wore the classic Gopnik outfit I expected a big Hardbass drop… 😢
Раз раз раз это 😂😂😂😂
13:30 plates are made for specific body armor which has additional shock absorber and anti-fragmentation package with it

Another great video 🫶🏻 thanks for the 3am viewing here in Australia !!! Have noticed the raise in silencers/suppressors since your Canada/Christmas trip, is there a reason behind it or have you just got into them more ??? Much love from the land down under
We got our Federal licensing to be able to have companies send us silencers and short barreled rifles directly to our office now so it is so much easier. Also silencers are cool, everyone should have them!!! Much love to the Aussie fam!
@@David.Lopez.12 you should mail me a SBR hehehe
Ok that makes a lot of sense 👌🏻 and I agree , silencers are indeed cool !! Cheers for the info 🙌🏻
Did they delete Matt's comment?
