Lightest Bullet Proof Jacket in India has been developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation

Lightest Bullet Proof Jacket in India has been developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).
This Jacket grants protection against the highest threat level 6 of BIS ammunition.
Recently, successful test of this bullet proof jacket was done at Terminal Ballistics Research Laboratory (TBRL), Chandigarh.
According to the Ministry of Defence, this jacket is based upon new design approach.
In this approach, novel material along with new processes have been used.
The front Hard Armour Panel (HAP) of this jacket defeats multiple hits.
It is made up of monolithic ceramic plate with polymer backing. This improves the wearability and comfort during the operation.
