Hesco Testing Protocol
NIJ Certification of hard armor requires submission of 10 x 12 test plates which must demonstrate the ability to defeat specific rounds tested to a valid NIJ shot pattern. after exposure to a stringent conditioning protocol to simulate aging and wear. Level III requires six M80 rounds per plate.Level IV requires one AP M2 per plate.
For reduced thickness. the BI 4800LV does not have front face or back face foam layers and therefore does not meet the drop test or backface signature deformation requirements of NIJ Standard0101.06. Otherwise. its ballistic performance is consistent with the BI 4800.
Hesco holds itself to a higher standard by publishing the minimum number of shots that each size plate can be expected to defeat under similar NIJ testing methods. as well as listing many additional threats not addressed under the NIJ Certification process. Those minimum numbers are shown here.
