All the information is out there on what the various levels of protection mean, what materials they use to achieve them, and the weight of the different materials. Most of the time, this information is available directly from the websites selling armor.

Being behind cover.

I've always considered Paraclete to be the gold standard for armor plates.

Shellback sells a level IV stand alone ceramic plate that's rated up to 6 rounds of .30-06 M2AP, which is fucking phenomenonal.

Does anyone know of any statistics comparing the sprint speed of a man with and without an kevlar+plate system?

Dogger Armor.

closest I could find.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18610770

a load of 15-20% of body mass increases sprint times from 7.5-19.8%.

assuming a 13 second 100 meter sprint, this would increase the time by at most 2 seconds.

Wait, wearing a weighted vest makes you a better runner? Or is my reading comprehension just shit?
>>
>>31744350
Opposite. You want a small sprint time. So, wearing gear make a person 15-20% slower
>>
>>31744381
err fuck, 7.5% - 19.8% slower than someone without gear

I do what i can to represent

>>31744444

Congratulations on the quints but honestly you'd probably be better off with larger plates, that's really not covering much on you.

Whatever you are wearing when the bullets come in.
