Ballistic Groin Protection (Ballistic Under-shorts) — DSTU Class 1

Ballistic groin protection is a lightweight, flexible, and vital piece of gear that ensures safety for one of the body's most vulnerable areas. It is the optimal choice for those seeking to maintain maximum mobility without compromising protection against shrapnel, blast waves, and pistol rounds.

I. Technologies and Materials

UHMWPE (25 layers): The protection core consists of 25 layers of Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene. This structure allows the ballistic insert to effectively dissipate impact energy and significantly reduce the risk of blunt force trauma (back-face deformation injury).

Ergonomics: The product is designed as a modern, lightweight alternative to heavy metal components. It contours to the body, allowing for free movement, squatting, and the execution of active combat tasks.

II. Ballistic Properties

The product meets Class 1 protection standards according to DSTU 8782:2018 and provides reliable protection against:

9×18 mm (Makarov) and 9×19 mm (Luger/Parabellum) rounds.

Shrapnel (glass, concrete), secondary debris, and ricochets at velocities up to ±450 m/s.

Direct blast wave impact.
