AR700 Rifle Rated Armor – NIJ III+ RF1–RF2 Steel Plates

🛡️ Perseus AR700 III+RF1RF2 Armor egineered for Extreme Rifle Threats

The Perseus AR700 III+RF1RF2 Armor represent the next step in rifle-rated protection. Built with superior hardness and strength. When compared to AR500 or AR600, these plates are specifically designed to withstand high-velocity threats and repeated impacts. Rated to NIJ Level III+ RF1 and RF2 standards, they stop common rifle rounds including 5.56, 7.62×39, and .308 Winchester with authority. When you need plates that refuse to quit, AR700 delivers confidence in the most demanding missions.

🎯 Why Choose AR700 Over AR500 or AR600?

Transitioning from AR500 to AR600 was already an upgrade, but AR700 takes it further. This steel is engineered to be harder, tougher, and longer-lasting under ballistic stress. Because of this superior hardness, AR700 plates provide additional ballistic resistance without compromising carrier compatibility. Therefore, if your goal is maximum multi-hit durability in a steel plate, Perseus AR700 is the clear answer.

💪 Durability Meets Ergonomics

Perseus AR700 is available in single-curve or also flat profiles. This ergonomic shaping reduces fatigue during extended wear, while also offering complete coverage. Whether you’re training, on patrol, or preparing for worst-case scenarios, these plates balance toughness with mobility.
