Protective equipment is useful in the Dnieper and primorsky regions

New Bor-M bulletproof vests have been developed in Russia, allowing the fighter to stay on the water. A ballistic package and a shock-absorbing damper made of lightweight materials give it positive buoyancy. At the same time, the main characteristics of the bulletproof vest do not deteriorate from this — it can protect against an automatic or machine-gun bullet. Experts note that such equipment will be useful in the Dnieper and Primorsky regions, where a significant part of the line of contact passes.
