Nexus Soft Armour combines 2 elements very rearly found in comercial Armour. Nexus panels are NIJ level 111a and Home Office approved HG2 Rated, and have a V-50 Fragmentation rating in excess of 630 meters per second (630 m/s). This means that Nexus Soft Armour is capable of stopping 9mm handgun and 9mm Sub ( MP5 ) at higher velocity. Although Soft Armour will stop a projectile the degree of energy that is absorbed by the body, known as the Back Face Signature, is far less in Nexus Soft Armour, NIJ level 111a permits up to 44 mm of energy absorbtion ( this usually results in bad bruising and even broken bones ) our Nexus panels on average reduce this effect to only 25 mm of back face signature. In addition Nexus Soft Armour has a V-50 in excess of 630 m/s which is 30% greater than standard Nato issue ( eg Osprey Panels ) this means that Nexus Soft Armour gives very high levels of protection against the impact of shrapnel from I.E.Ds and Grenades as well as greater ballistic protection against small arms and 9mm Sub Machine Gun (MP5)
