Neptun GEN4 V2 Body Armor: Lightweight Protection That Saves Lives!
Listen up! If you need extreme protection but every extra kilogram is a problem, then this is your option! The Neptun GEN4 V2 Body Armor offers sixth-class protection at a weight of only 6.7 kg! This isn't just a light vest; it's technology that gives you an edge on the battlefield. You get a fully ready-to-use kit: a reliable plate carrier made of Cordura 1000D, side and groin protection, and Class 6 armor plates.
What's Inside? Let's Talk Protection!
The heart of this body armor is its 6th-class ceramic plates (NIJ IV 0101.06). They are made from aluminum oxide (Al2O3) combined with UHMWPE, making them maximally resistant to penetration. Each plate measures 30x25 cm and has a thickness of 2.4 cm, weighing just 2.8 kg. Such plates can withstand truly serious challenges.
What about ballistic protection? The additional protection is made from UHMWPE and an 8mm damper. It corresponds to Class 1 protection according to DSTU 8782:2018. This is a basic but effective barrier against fragments and secondary damaging elements.
Plate Carrier: Designed Down to the Last Detail
We understand that comfort and speed matter. That's why the Neptun GEN4 V2 plate carrier is equipped with:
- Quick-release hardware from 2M: If you need to ditch it in a second, it's possible.
- 3D ventilation: Your back breathes, even during long operations.
- Removable MOLLE panel and a convenient front pocket: Maximum flexibility in gear placement and space for small items.
Pouch Kit: Everything You Need is Already Here!
To ensure you're fully ready out of the box, the kit includes:
- 3 front magazine pouches
- 1 dump pouch
- 1 tourniquet pouch
- 2 side pouches
- 1 first-aid kit pouch
The total weight of the Neptun GEN4 V2 body armor is ~7 kg. And it's universal, adjustable from S to 3XL, fitting any fighter.
Neptun GEN4 V2+: Our Answer to Your Experience!
Listen, we've listened to your feedback! The Neptun GEN4 V2+ is an improved version that combines the same 6th class protection but with enhanced side protection. Its total weight is still ~7 kg. This is still very respectable for this level of protection. The kit includes the same reliable plate carrier, improved side and groin protection, and, of course, 9 pouches.
Protection You Can Trust!
As for the armor plates, there are no compromises here:
- Protection Class: 6 (NIJ IV 0101.06). The same reliable heart of the body armor.
- Material: Ceramic (aluminum oxide Al2O3) + UHMWPE. Tested, proven, works.
- Dimensions: 30x25 cm, thickness: 2.4 cm, weight: 2.8 kg (per plate). A classic that saves lives.
But where's the difference? In ballistic protection. Here we've raised the bar: the material is UHMWPE, but with a 5mm damper, and most importantly, it corresponds to Class 2 protection according to DSTU 8782:2018. This means significantly better energy absorption and greater confidence.
Plate Carrier: Even Better Comfort!
The plate carrier has retained all the advantages of the previous model and even improved slightly:
- Quick-release hardware from 2M: An indispensable feature.
- 3D ventilation for improved comfort: More airflow, less sweat.
- Removable MOLLE panel and pocket for personal items: Everything in its place and easily accessible.
Full Pouch Kit – Nothing Extra, Everything Essential!
As with the previous version, this includes a full combat kit of pouches:
- 3 front magazine pouches
- 1 dump pouch
- 1 tourniquet pouch
- 2 side pouches
- 1 first-aid kit pouch
The total weight of the Neptun GEN4 V2+ body armor is ~7 kg, and, of course, it's universal, adjustable from S to 3XL.
Both options offer serious protection, but the V2+ provides a bit more peace of mind due to its reinforced ballistic protection, with a slight weight improvement. Which is more important to you?
