KDH BALLISTIC SYSTEMS & Stab Resistant ArmorNIJ Standard-0115.00 establishes minimum performance requirements and test methodology for body armor that is designed toprotect the torso against stab and slash weapons. Body armor covered by this standard are grouped into one of two protectionclasses (‘Edged Blade’ and ‘Spike’) depending on the type of threat environment. Within each protection class, the armor is furthercategorized into one of three protection classes (1, 2, and 3).KDH NIJ Standard 0101.06 Ballistic SystemsBallistic Resistance of Body Armor NIJ Standard-0101.06 is an NIJ (National Institute of Justice) Standard that establishesminimum performance requirements and test methods for the ballistic resistance of personal body armor protectingthe torso area.

ATPC-SPEAR SYSTEMATPC-SPEAR System ComponentsThe ATPC-SPEAR System is the culmination of 4 years of research and development with the U.S. AirForce – Special Operations Command (AFSOC). The ballistic shape used in the ATPC-SPEAR is basedon the U.S. Special Operations SPEAR shaped ballistic panels. The SPEAR ballistic shape is a battleproven design that combines ballistic coverage and operator mobility, which are two phrases thatnormally oppose one another.In addition to the many standard features of the ATPC-SPEAR, it can also be used with the KDHCORELOAD weight reduction system. The CORELOAD allows the weight of the vest to be movedfrom the shoulders to the hips similar to that of an alpine backpack. By using a padded MOLLE beltcoupled with a semi-rigid spinal insert the CORELOAD distributes the weight of the vest affording theoperator the sense of carrying a lesser load. The CORELOAD is the analogous solution to the question“which one is heavier, a pound of lead or a pound of foam?” One feels heavier than the other due toits concentrated surface area. With CORELOAD , the overall weight of a tac vest is spread out acrossthe strongest parts of the musculature thus creating a faster operating vest that fights fatigue while givingsuperb ballistic coverage.Features 20866-517-1113 www.KDHdefenseSystems.com Emergency cableMOLLE webbing front & backHard armor, bottom loading plate pockets accommodating both standard and shooter’s cut platesAdjustable shoulder straps with quick attach pointsLow-profile robust drag handleOpening/mounting location for optional CORELOAD weight distribution systemSide Cummerbund– Full wrap around style side cummerbund– 045 HDPE rigid plastic inserts to prevent sag– Optional gap armor panel– Adjustable/removable 4” wide elastic internal cummerbundBallistic Shoulder PadsFoam and ballistic inserts inside of a spacer mesh pad to make this system one of the mostcomfortable systems on the marketAnti-microbial spacer mesh provides both comfort and protection from bacteriaProtected by nGuard : resistant to odor, microbes, fungi, mosquitos, bed bugs, color fadingCHEST RIGATTACHMENT STRAPSTHROAT WITHBALLISTIC INSERTBALLISTIC COLLARDRAG HANDLESHOULDER PADID PATCHQUICK RELEASE TABSINGLE POINTRIFLE SLINGSHOULDER PADSUPPER ARM PROTECTORSWITH BALLISTICUPPER ARM PROTECTORSWITH BALLISTIC INSERTSID PATCHSHOULDER STRAPFRONT CARRIERWITH BALLISTICSGEAR FLAPUNIVERSAL SIDECUMMERBUNDREAR CARRIERWITH BALLISTICSUNIVERSAL SIDECUMMERBUNDLOWERBACK PROTECTORWITH BALLISTICSGROIN PROTECTOROptions Hip belt ballistic insertsShoulder biceps protectors (pair)Groin protectorLower back protectorCollarThroat Integrated, single-point, ambidextrous weapons slingChest rig attachment strapsSide cummerbund ballistic insertCORELOAD System consisting of a padded hip belt (optional ballistic panel available), upper and lower 3mmABS plastic vertical spine, two rows of MOLLE on the hip belt, anti-microbial spacer mesh on the inside of thehip belt for both comfort and protection.21866-517-1113 www.KDHdefenseSystems.com

ATPC-STANDARDKDH CORELOAD Load Management SystemOne of the most advanced, feature packed plate carriers on themarket today, KDH Defense Systems has combined years of combatdata to create a solution to the requirements that have been presentedby the Department of Defense. Fully adjustable, padded, scalableand comfortable are just a few words to describe this system. Thecarrier has an armor compartment with a rear reinforced ABS plasticspine that distributes the load better than any carrier in its class. TheATPC-Standard can be used as a stand-alone plate carrier or a fullyup-armored tactical vest.Adjustment PointsAvailable exclusively withKDH’s ATPC-SPEAR bar PadFeatures Removable/adjustable side plates Can be ordered to fit U.S. issue X-Small thru X-Large hard armorESAPI plates as well as standard 10x12 plates Side plate pockets are designed to hold U.S. issue 7x8 ESBIplates (other sizes available) Single-handed emergency egress quick-release system Reinforced drag handle Full wrap-around cummerbund with hook and loop front gearflap closure Protected by nGuard : resistant to odor, microbes, fungi,mosquitos, bed bugs, color fading Options 22866-517-1113 www.KDHdefenseSystems.comOptional side straps allow the system to be used without thecummerbundCORELOAD System consisting of a padded hip belt (optionalballistic panel available), upper and lower 3mm ABS plastic vertical spine, two rows of MOLLE on the hip belt, anti-microbialspacer mesh on the inside of the hip belt for both comfort andprotectionKDH CORELOAD is an integral load management system that effectivelycontrols and redistributes the weight of armor and equipment resulting inimproved user comfort and performance.The foundation of the CORELOAD System was developed in a broadresearch program using Human Factors Engineering principles inconjunction with real world testing. Prototype iterations were refinedbased on both operator feedback and scientific testing using a customdesigned full torso pressure mapping system. The ultimate design is apatented, robust, lightweight system with quantifiable performance.The CORELOAD System utilizes an ergonomically designed paddedhip-belt to anchor and control the weight of armor and gear, reducingpressure on the wearer’s shoulders. The hip-belt is connected to the vestusing a lightweight internal skeleton offering load support with strategicallylocated articulation points ensuring low profile and maximum flexibility.In addition to the load bearing elements, CORELOAD also incorporatesan adjustment system that allows the user to change the vest fit on-the-flywithout removing the vest to ensure optimum fit and eliminate bouncingand shifting. This reduces operator fatigue by eliminating chafing, reducingpressure spikes and controlling the center of gravity of the system.Key Characteristics of the KDH CORELOAD System Quantifiable load bearing capability in a lightweight, low profile systemImproved ballistic coverageImproved heat dissipationFlexible sizing adjustment and on-the-fly adjustability for comfortKDH CORELOAD load management built-in.
