PRODUCT OVERVIEW

With the rise in public safety concerns—school shootings alone have escalated to 314 incidents in 2024—having reliable, discreet protection has never been more essential. Tacticon’s Backpack Armor offers two tailored solutions to meet your needs:
1. Level IIIA (Soft Armor): Engineered with DuPont Kevlar, this lightweight insert provides ballistic protection against common handgun rounds, including .44 Magnum. Its flexible design ensures comfort and concealment in any standard backpack.
2. SRT (Special Rifle Threat Hard Plate): Constructed from UHMWPE, this standalone rifle-rated plate is capable of stopping 5.56 M193 and 7.62×39 threats, delivering advanced protection without adding unnecessary bulk.

Both options fit discreetly into most backpacks, offering portable defense for school, work, travel, or everyday use.
