Abstract – Ballistic resistant vest is a personal armor which is exceptionally impenetrable by projectiles It serves as armor, preventing or reducing the penetration of firearm fired projectiles into the body and protecting from explosions. This paper focuses on the study of a ballistic resistant vest. The type of materials used for fabrication, the classification of the vests. These vests come in a variety of styles and offer bullet resistance depending on the threat level. The armor is made of a protective material that is bulletproof. The Different sorts of materials that can be used to create various products can achieve the necessary qualities and strength levels. The material utilized also is a key aspect for strength. Vests with low weight and thickness are the market's present trend. This would make it possible to choose the best vest type and sort based on the duties at hand and the operational environment in a simple, adequate, and rational manner.
