:munchin Spotted this AM on Military.com video section.

:confused: Why would anyone push armor that stops an AK??

Defense Venture Group has a YouTube section:

Probably a good fit for East LA, DC, Chicago, or Detroit?? :eek:

A bit to light weight for Caracas, Venezuela, even for Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua..

:cool:

I'm not sure why. "Country Joe and the Fish" thought they did, however:

Come on Wall Street, don't be slow,
Why man, this is war au-go-go
There's plenty good money to be made
By supplying the Army with the tools of its trade

Non Standard Tactical Truck.
No doubt the troops would call them NASTIES.:D

Rated for higher than AK, they dont say how much higher only "The NSTT offers scalable armor packages to meet multiple threat levels" Looks like they offer 3 threat levels and also claim IED protection. The closest to a public spec I could find was Opaque & transparent armor Euronorm B6+

B6 is 7.62x51 FMJ pointed nose with a soft core, B7 is the same with a steel core.
