How much does this stuff weigh?!
My flak with Level IV SAPI plates was like 35 pounds, that was just for the armor and nylon, and it was roughly tank top shaped. God only knows what something jacket-sized would weigh if it were lined in ballistic ceramic plates.
The thought of international VIP types trudging around like a big ol' bulletproof Harrison Bergeron is actually kind of funny now that I think more about it.
