Level 4 Body Armor Plate Carrier Compatibility
As a 10″x12″ single-curve, hard armor plate, the RMA 1155SC will fit into a majority of plate carriers. So, here are some of the best plate carriers that we recommend with model 1155SC body armor:
Do I Need Level 4 Plates?
The basic rule of thumb is that body armor is typically deployed for the highest common threat that the user may encounter.
For example, police officers most often don’t wear level 3 or 4 plates for everyday duty. Their bulk, weight, smaller coverage area, and also inability to stop more total rounds from handguns makes soft IIIA armor vests ideal. Since the vast majority of ballistic threats faced by police are from handgun rounds like 9mm and .45 ACP, rifle plates would get in the way of everyday tasks and fatigue an officer’s muscular and cardiovascular systems more quickly than soft IIIA armor while providing no additional protection from the vast majority of ordinary ballistic threats.
Purchasing body armor isn’t just about buying the highest number you can. It’s about tailoring the minimum amount of bulk and also weight necessary to the application at hand. Surviving a hail of bullets doesn’t come down to the ability to absorb them until your attacker runs out of ammunition; it comes down to ending or exiting the fight. Therefore, your armor system should compliment that strategy.
