Dragon Skin vs Interceptor y otros
Hace mucho que me pregunto que pasó con la pugna entre Pinaccle y muchos defensores del DS y el USArmy. El Ejército prefirió el "antiguo" (pur su tecnología) Interceptor, ahora mejorado o upgradeado al IOTV antes que el publicitado Dragon Skin. Ahora cuesta encontrar alguna fuente confiable u objetiva que diga cual es realmente mejor.
Según Pinaccle:
Increased Multiple Repeat Hit Capability
Pinnacle’s SOV/Dragon Skin® technology can sustain greater amounts of impacts than current monolithic ceramic plate technologies affording increased soldier survivability.
Less Trauma (Backface Deformation Signature)
Pinnacle’s SOV/Dragon Skin® technology has demonstrated 45-52% reduction in average back face deformation reduced trauma to the body. This means the wearer can take multiple hits on the vest and keep fighting effectively. This aspect, by itself, is incredibly important, especially in urban warfare and CQB (Close Quarters Battle) scenarios.
Reduced Ricochet Threat
The SOV/Dragon Skin® technology has shown to eliminate ricochets’ from obliquity/angled shots up to 60°. The rigid plates have ricochet shots starting at approximately 35°. This too increases soldier survivability by reducing the probability of one soldier being shot and the projectile ricocheting off him and into the next soldier injuring or fatally wounding him/her.
Fit Flexibility
The SOV/Dragon Skin® technology is tailorable for both male and females to the 97 percentile. It can be used not only in a tactical configuration but also in concealed variants for both genders.
Weighs Less
Pinnacle’s Dragon Skin® technology’s (Flexible Body Armor) vest has the lightest weight for the ballistic and fragmentation protection capabilities provided. No other technology has the protection (coverage and impact capabilities) that the SOV/Dragon Skin® technology provides.
