Always seems like there are big parts of the chest not covered by the Kevlar. I get that there maybe aren’t organs up by your shoulders, but, seems like it makes it easier for bullets to come in from the side. Why not just have more coverage?
In: Engineering
Cause you are essentially protecting your vitals. Soft body armor like kevlar vest worn to protect you from pistol caliber armor typically covers a larger portion of your body. Hard armor like ceramic plates for rifles are smaller and only cover the areas where being hit is going to result in rapid death/incapacitation. And covers less for weight and to allow more maneuverability
Mobility, remember the times these things are used are often combat, you don’t want anything impeding someone’s ability to use a gun without messing up their aim and muscle memory
