At the Enforce Tac 2026 trade fair, Rheinmetall is presenting a newly developed body armour system for military use.
The new system shields against attacks with firearms, stabbing weapons and explosives. The modular design allows for situation-specific, individually configurable wearing options depending on the purpose and location of use, thus ensuring optimum wearing comfort.
The ballistic protection elements include soft ballistic protection for the front, back and abdomen, in accordance with VPAM BSW Level 3. There are also hard ballistic inserts on the front and back, which can be upgraded to VPAM BSW stand-alone Levels 6 or 9. Stab protection in accordance with VPAM KDIW Level K1 can also be added. The upper arms, thighs, neck and shoulders are protected against shrapnel.
The system also includes a chest rig as well as a set of bags and accessories for holding ammunition, combat equipment and other gear. There are also transportation bags for carrying the entire system.
Rheinmetall is now one of the leading providers of complete ballistic body armour systems. At our stand, the Rheinmetall Protection Systems business unit will also be showcasing other ballistic solutions for police and military applications.
The new body armour system is on display at stand 426 in Hall 10. The next-generation Fuchs JAGM armoured missile destroyer will be presented at our other Enforce Tac stand in the “Armed Forces Area”, stand 310 in hall 11.
