Description
Women in the military are not receiving adequate fitting protective body armor. Poorly fitting body armor and protective gear is not only uncomfortable to wear, it’s one of the leading causes of injury among all service members. There have been improvements made over the years that have reduced some risks, but a lot more needs to be done. Within this proposal, JNI Armor will team with industry body armor companies and Oregon Ballistics Lab (OBL) and transition body armor technologies to complex curved structures to develop a body armor solution for female warriors. It is anticipated that technology will be translated from ESAPI solutions and translated to a female body armor solution.
