There was a recent war in which something shocking happened. A British soldier was shot 12 times on the battlefield, but miraculously survived. This is all thanks to the Chinese-made body armor he is wearing. Many people are skeptical about this, wondering if Chinese body armor is really so bullish. But in reality, China's body armor does not carry heavy steel plates, as the rumors say.
Instead, they use a material called Kevlar, which is a mixture of ceramics that are extremely flexible and appear as a mesh. This precision-engineered body armor can effectively block the impact from the warhead as well as sharp shrapnel, making soldiers safer in battle. According to statistics, 70% of the world's body armor is made in China, with the UK being the largest customer.
This incident not only made people think a lot about China's body armor, but also made people realize that in modern warfare, efficient protective equipment is crucial. China's leading position in body armor technology escorts the safety of soldiers and adds a touch of color to the country's military strength.
Such stories tell us that the development of science and technology is crucial to the upgrading of military protective equipment, and at the same time, it also makes people more convinced of China's scientific and technological strength.
