Many remember the various mentions of the infamous dragon skin body armor that could take numerous hits without fail in tv shows, movies, and even books. Though the company that produced Dragon skin has gone defunct. There is company that makes something similar. RMA (which stands for the company founder’s daughters Renee, Meghan and Alexis) was founded by Blake Waldrop, a former US Marine (2001-2005) and a sworn police officer (2007-2013).

Ceramic Level IV Armor Plate (model #1189) by RMA

RMA’s Level IV (model #1189) single-curve ballistic rifle plates are designed to withstand rugged usage while not compromising the ballistic integrity of the plate. The Level IV is multi-hit .30-06 M2AP tested by an NIJ certified laboratory and can defeat between 5-7 M2AP rounds.

THE WORLD”S STRONGEST PLATE!

RMA has no hesitation in claiming that their level IV rifle plate is the strongest of its kind on the market today. The reasoning is simple: RMA uses a patented ceramic tile array to greatly reduce crack propagation. Conventional level IV plates use a monolithic piece of ceramic, which, when hit by an M2AP round, produces ‘spiderweb’ cracks across the plate, greatly reducing the plate’s ability to defeat multiple rounds.

RMA‘s patented tile array essentially tells the ceramic where to crack upon impact, mitigating the damage and integrity to the rest of the plate and ensuring full protection to armor piercing rounds on other parts of the ceramic.

This patented process undeniably provides world-class safety to military and law enforcement personnel across the globe that is unmatched by any other manufacturer.
