LIFEJACKET
with
Removable Ballistic Protection
For the Finnish Navy Finnrappel Oy developed Lifejacket with
Removable Ballistic Protection.
•The construction is unique
due to use of
the patented Hokka Lifejacket and Ballistic panels.
•Hokka Lifejacket is
made of small
polystyrene balls offering a superb comfortability and flexibility
in use.
•The blunt trauma of the fragment impacts is absorbed very
effectively by the
buoyancy material.
•You'll stay alive as long as the
panels aren't penetrated by the fragments or bullets.
•If the wearer is thrown
out to the
water unconscious the Lifejacket turns the face automatically upwards.
•You can safely jump from the ship to the water
- also in real life!
If Kevlar® panels
are used they're covered with special
breathable and waterproof material unaffected by the
salt water. We
can use all the latest ballistic panels: Dyneema®, Spectra®,
Twaron®
etc.
A UNIQUE SYSTEM
We call the Lifejacket package a system, because with the use of the outer
cover the panels can also be worn
as a
standard Bulletproof Vest + you can
actually swim with them or stand in the rain for hours without decreasing
the level of the
protection. There is no need to acquire two separate systems, only two different covers.
In addition
to that upgrade and
replacement of every part is very simple.
