Book excerpt: Since 2003, to provide protection from ballistic threats, U.S. Central Command, which is responsible for operations in Iraq & Afghanistan & other areas, has required service members & DoD civilians in its area of operations to be issued the Interceptor Body Armor (IBA) system. Concerns regarding the level of protection & amount of IBA needed to protect U.S. forces have occurred in recent years. This review determines to what extent the Army & Marine Corps: (1) are meeting the theater requirements for body armor; (2) have the controls in place to assure that the manufacturing & fielding of body armor meet requirements; & (3) are sharing information regarding their efforts on body armor ballistic requirements & testing.

Download or read book Opportunities in Protection Materials Science and Technology for Future Army Applications written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-08-27 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Armor plays a significant role in the protection of warriors. During the course of history, the introduction of new materials and improvements in the materials already used to construct armor has led to better protection and a reduction in the weight of the armor. But even with such advances in materials, the weight of the armor required to manage threats of ever-increasing destructive capability presents a huge challenge. Opportunities in Protection Materials Science and Technology for Future Army Applications explores the current theoretical and experimental understanding of the key issues surrounding protection materials, identifies the major challenges and technical gaps for developing the future generation of lightweight protection materials, and recommends a path forward for their development. It examines multiscale shockwave energy transfer mechanisms and experimental approaches for their characterization over short timescales, as well as multiscale modeling techniques to predict mechanisms for dissipating energy. The report also considers exemplary threats and design philosophy for the three key applications of armor systems: (1) personnel protection, including body armor and helmets, (2) vehicle armor, and (3) transparent armor. Opportunities in Protection Materials Science and Technology for Future Army Applications recommends that the Department of Defense (DoD) establish a defense initiative for protection materials by design (PMD), with associated funding lines for basic and applied research. The PMD initiative should include a combination of computational, experimental, and materials testing, characterization, and processing research conducted by government, industry, and academia.

Book excerpt: In recent years, a number of reports and newspaper articles have cited concerns regarding the level of protection and the available amounts of body armor to protect deployed service members. As part of GAO's efforts to monitor the Department of Defense's (DoD) and the services' action to protect ground forces, GAO reviewed the Army and Marine Corps' actions to address these concerns. On April 26, 2007, GAO issued a report regarding the Army and the Marine Corps' individual body armor systems. Today's testimony summarizes the report's findings regarding the extent to which the Army and Marine Corps have done the following: (1) have met the theater requirements for body armor, (2) have the controls in place to assure that the manufacturing and fielding of body armor meet requirements, and (3) have shared information regarding their efforts on body armor ballistic requirements and testing. The report also included additional information concerning whether contractors or non-DoD civilians obtain body armor in the same way as U.S. forces and DoD civilians given the number of contractors and non-DoD civilians in CENTCOM's area of operation. GAO did not make recommendations in the report. DoD officials did not provide written comments on the report but technical comments were incorporated as appropriate.

Download or read book Selection and Application Guide to Personal Body Armor written by U. S. Department of Justice and published by . This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lightweight body armor has been widely available for use by law enforcement personnel for more than 25 years. The dramatic reduction in officer homicides following the introduction of body armor attests to the protection it provides. This success story extends far beyond protection from handguns—an estimated 2,500 lives have been spared, including cases in which body armor prevented serious injuries to officers from other types of assaults or accidents. The National Institute of Justice2 (NIJ) has developed standards for body armor performance through its Office of Law Enforcement Standards (OLES). The standard for ballistic resistance of body armor was developed 28 years ago and has gone through four revisions. In September 2000, NIJ introduced its standard for stab and puncture resistance of body armor. Body armor is tested as a part of the National Law Enforcement and Corrections Technology Center (NLECTC) voluntary equipment testing program to determine compliance with the NIJ standards, and NLECTC disseminates those test results and other pertinent information to the law enforcement and corrections communities. While body armor is a household word in the criminal justice community, questions about its selection and use are frequently asked. This guide responds to commonly expressed concerns. It provides information to help determine what level of protection is consistent with the threats to which individual officers are exposed. It also discusses armor selection from the variety of styles available, together with the proper care of armor in service. The NIJ standards are discussed in detail, as well as the use of the standards in armor procurement. In addition, the guide discusses administrative concerns, including the issue of replacing in service armor, and describes other sources of information. NIJ asks all departments to exercise prudent judgment in selecting armor appropriate to their needs. In so doing, NIJ urges proper attention to those factors that affect the wearability of armor in order to encourage routine, full-time use by all on-duty officers. The temptation to order armor that provides more protection than realistically needed should be resisted, because doing so may increase the likelihood that the armor will not be worn routinely. This guide opens with a history of the development of body armor and background on the lives it has saved. The heart of the guide—how to proceed to select and purchase body armor—begins with chapter 6 and includes chapters explaining how to assess the level of protection needed, things to think about when selecting armor, and ways to keep it in proper working order.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On November 17, 2003, Attorney General John Ashcroft announced the Department of Justice's Body Armor Safety Initiative in response to concerns from the law enforcement community regarding the effectiveness of their armor. He directed the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) to initiate an examination of Zylon(Registered trademark)-based bullet-resistant armor (both new and used), to analyze upgrade kits provided by manufacturers to retrofit Zylon(R)-based bullet-resistant armors, and to review the existing process by which bullet-resistant armor is certified to determine if the process needs modification. On March 11, 2004, as part of the Attorney General's directive, the Office of Justice Programs (OJP) held a Body Armor Summit. At the same time, NIJ released its report, "Status Report to the Attorney General on Body Armor Safety Initiative Testing and Activities ." NIJ continues to conduct research and testing to assess the performance of used Zylon(R)-based armor, to identify methods for measuring changes in ballistic-resistant materials and ballistic performance, to assess the performance of the manufacturer provided upgrade kits and to assess the existing body armor standard and compliance testing process. This reports supplements what is contained in the March 11, 2004, status report.
