Integrated Aircrew Body Armor
Abstract
The Air Force has no approved aircrew body armor. The Integrated Aircrew Body Armor (IABA) project plans to purchase existing government or commercial body armor and integrate with survival gear, restraint & recovery harness, and a life preserver unit. The selected body armor must meet Director of Operational Test and Evaluation (DOT&E) live fire requirements, provide adequate soft/hard body armor coverage to the torso, demonstrate good overall use and maneuverability, and pass appropriate Safe-To-Fly (STF) tests.
