RXR Protect presents its BABT protection solutions for the military field. Our products use the ASA 3.0 technology to absorb the maximum shock wave created during a ballistic impact, also called "Behind Armor Blunt Trauma".
Behind armor blunt trauma (BABT) is an injury that occurs when a bullet or other projectile strikes a piece of body armor and causes a blunt force trauma to the body behind the armor. Body armor is designed to stop bullets from penetrating the body, but it does not prevent the transfer of kinetic energy from the projectile to the body. This energy transfer can cause damage to internal organs, bone, and soft tissue.
When a bullet strikes body armor, the impact causes the armor to deform and absorb the kinetic energy of the projectile. The force of the impact is spread over a wider area of the body, which reduces the likelihood of a fatal injury. However, the force can still be significant enough to cause injury.
BABT can occur in a number of ways. One common mechanism is through the compression of the chest, which can cause damage to the lungs and heart. Another is through the transmission of shock waves through the body, which can cause injury to the brain and other organs.
The severity of BABT depends on a number of factors, including the velocity and mass of the projectile, the type and quality of the body armor, and the distance between the shooter and the target. It is important for individuals who wear body armor to be aware of the risks of BABT and to take steps to minimize their risk of injury, such as wearing properly fitted armor and using additional protective equipment.
Our protections allow the ballistically impacted soldier to not be vulnerable.
Our solutions are composed of encapsulated air and must be worn under ballistic protection.
