I can tell you from experience, the armor we use today (kevlar-ceramic plate) works well IF your hit in the small area where either plate is.. Although I would love to have this new material or Dragonskin* Armor.
@TheAlexagius unfortunately even before we got all broke the govt was still about pinching its pennies so our boys still got issued the best crap from the lowest bidder. mil-spec is the biggest advertising scam in the world because it basically means "a little bit tougher than what youre expecting so its worth the extra 500$."
If the Army doesn't want to pay let the soldiers pay themselves; just give them the option ASAP.
