The plate should work on its own. The thing that stands out to me is there's not even deformation. None of the impact is being caught and spread out. Just perfect holes. So yeah. Well outside the envelope for where the kevlar shell would have made a difference.
By the sounds of it they just used sheet metal lol
Yup. Just classic Russian corruption where there's something in the inventory. Just not what it's supposed to be.
Interesting, I learnt something new today.
Seems delightfully medieval as a solution. What does the Kevlar do? Mostly anti-spalling?
Stops shrapnel, pistol rounds, and spalling.
