К п.975.Из любопытства заглянул к этим "Даймонд Эйдж",ребята по их словам занимаются боридной металлокерамикой: бор титан,бор алюминий, бор магний... а сейчас подсаживаются на нанотрубки нитрида бора. http://www.membrana.ru/particle/14438 если обещанные(к середине сего года) продукты из них то будет любопытно глянуть на ценник.

Все новое - хорошо забытое старое...

The model T16E4 was based on a previous flyer's model and originally consisted of a central crotch section with two overlapping metal plates which were hinged on the sides. Later, the central hourglass-shaped section was developed with two lateral phalanges made up of nylon material. The central area continued to be made of small overlapping metal plates and was fastened by means of straps to the cartridge belt. A later model, the T16E6, provided a reduced area coverage through elimination of the central protection in the rear and a reduction in the size of the lateral leg phalanges. However, some increased protection was provided in the region of the groin and genitalia. This model was also constructed of a combination of 2-inch square manganese steel plates and nylon-duck material. It was believed that the crotch armor could be used in conjunction with other items of personnel armor and some locally improvised lower extremity protection for those individuals engaged in mine clearance. The model T16E4 (fig. 331) weighed 3 pounds and 6 ounces and provided an area protection of 1.15 square feet.

There is a dearth of medical statistics in regard to the positive importance of crotch armor for such personnel. However, numerous casualties were seen during the Korean War who suffered extensive saddle-type injuries due to detonation of landmines. It is very conceivable that protection in the region of the groin, the upper part of the thighs, and the buttocks would have been of some value for these individuals. Therefore, in conjunction with the development of the thoracoabdominal vest during the Korean War, an all-nylon crotch armor was produced, but it was not intended for general usage. It was advocated only for personnel engaged in specialized tasks, such as mine clearance.

споров с ним у меня вообще не было))

если не считать одной дискуссии за пределами его группы на совсем уж отвлеченную тему.

Ну остается только пожать плечами))

видимо толще, но покупать у нас поделия от каких то доморощенных швей когда можно достать любой вид армейского и милицейского бж(любой страны), как бы не от большого ума имхо(хотя брать что то кроме армейских БЖ отечественного производства так же не шибко умно)
