Steel is for poorfags. There's a reason no military in the world uses it: dispersion. If you need to stop more than 6 shots, you're almost guaranteed to be taking rounds in the other 82%+ of your body as well.

The closest is Russia, with titanium, and they're transitioning to aluminum oxide, which is a generation behind average western ceramic (boron carbide).

It's true. about weight.

By the time you get a proper buildup costing on steel that will stop all splatter, you have a level 3 plate that weighs more than ceramic level 4. And can still get penned by m855a1.
