dick plates

Russians have a pocket for plates in their 6b43 vest, the groin plates are the same as the side ones.

The only people I've seen wear them were Raven Sword personnel in MGS4.

I've known about the Russian 6b43 for a while now, also has a lower back plate. Also the German groin plates that are almost the size of the chest plate. I'm just surprised that it took me until now to hear about the US military trying it.

>>30625403
Damn, I figured more people on /k/ would be interested in this. Depending on the coverage of the plates it could be a game changer for short range combat as aiming for the groin to avoid the chest plates would no longer be an option.

the more things change

I got issued a dick plate. Every unit I was with got issued dick plates. Even in 2009 in the national guard.

What gun is that?

>>30628934
Honestly looks like an Ultimax 100

>>30629134
Yea, I'm quite supprised.

I don't get it. Is the goal or more and more armor to make it get to the point that a soldier can run or even move? When is enough enough?

Honestly I'd rather get shot in the dick or balls, than into the femoral artery - which that thing is meant to protect.

Geez.

>>30629134
Isn't that a chinese rifle?

>>30629218
I wouldn't. Getting shot in the femoral would be a death sentence, but getting shot in the groin is the new gutshot. Not much they can do for you out in the field. Only way to stop the bleeding is to stuff it all full of gauz and quickclot, which in many cases ends up making it worse.

Pic is from ~2005-6 when the Marines were starting evaluations for the IAR. Ultimax Mk 4 was one of the entrees and Delta Force got a hold of some of them

Also, Dick flaps with MOLLE can be used to carrying flashbangs or additional pistol mags

OP is talking about dick plates, not dick soft armor. Totally different.

see:>>30625513

>>30625403
First Spear and Crye at least have also played with the concept. It hasn't caught on outside of niche because guys already think they are wearing too much armor.

plate armor for your crotch aside, there is soft armor for your dick/clam area already
