Ukrainian soldiers fighting on the front lines of Russia’s war are now testing curved body armour designed specifically for women so they’re better protected against bullets, shrapnel and drone strikes.
Ukrainian MP Iryna Nykorak said the majority of the more than 10,000 women serving in combat in her country are wearing ballistic plates for men that are too bulky, heavy and don’t fit their chests. Some decide not to wear the plate at all, which makes it useless, she said.
Female Friendly Body Armour was approved for use in the Ukraine army in 2023, why are we reinventing the wheel?
Someone’s gettin paid?
