Police Body Armor
Most police departments require their law enforcement officers to wear some form of body armor. The type of body armor vest worn will depend on their departments requirements and threats that they may encounter. These different types of police body armor include:
Ballistic Vests: This type of ballistic armor is designed to slow down the impact of a bullet. How the bullets impact is absorbed will depend on its threat level (IIA, II, IIIA, III or IV) and the type of armor worn: soft or hard armor. Keep in mind that while the higher the threat level, the greater protection, but also the weight of the police vest. Many patrol officers commonly wear soft body armor with at least threat level II or IIIA protection.
Stab Armor: Stab proof vests come in three spike levels (1, 2 and 3) for protection against different types of blunt force trauma. Theyre designed to be worn under or over articles of clothing and will resist edged weapon attacks to the chest, back and sides. Stab vests are most commonly worn by corrections officers who are within close proximity to dangerous individuals in confined spaces.
Concealable Body Armor: This type of armor vest is designed to be thinner than a standard ballistic vest and lighter in weight. They typically come in a dark or light color to blend in with formal attire or plain clothes and offer threat level protection from II through IIIA. Undercover officers and security guards typically opt for the level IIIA vest for protection against the majority of handgun bullets.
Tactical & Riot Gear
In more intense situations such as riot control or active shooter cases, officers require full body armor protection. Galls riot armor selection offers riot police officers with protection against blunt force trauma, hard blows and penetration from sharp objects.
