“The effect of resultant trauma in helmets can be dangerous and can lead to serious types of head and skull injuries. It is a known and growing concern of armed forces worldwide. This revolutionary technology will
contain the incidents of such injuries substantially,” says Neeraj Gupta, Managing Director. Also on display at IDEX 2015 will be a range of personal and platform armouring products manufactured using the 6th Generation Armouring Technology launched by MKU recently. These solutions are 40% lighter, thinner and more flexible compared to standard solutions in the market. This substantial reduction in weight offers more agility, speed, endurance and maneuverability to soldiers while carrying out their missions. MKU has been at the forefront of technology and has constantly endeavored to develop lighter and more flexible ballistic protection solutions for the modern soldier. Body armour made using the latest Gen 6 armour technologies, Ammoflex 6 and Polyshield 6 were also on display at the exhibition. These are up to 40% lighter and offer excellent multi-hit protection. Conforming to the stringent NIJ 0101.06 and VPAM standards these provide the soldier with unrestricted movement, flexibility and comfort. Such solutions are ideal for Special Forces which need to carry out quick missions. Over the years MKU has introduced several pioneering products which employ leading edge technology. These include Instavest, a quick release body armour and Boltfree technology for helmets. MKU was setup in 1985 and till date has provided protection to over 1.5 million soldiers and over 1500 platforms. Its products are used and trusted by more 230 forces in over 100 countries including the UN and NATO. |
