Definition of stand alone plates VS In conjunction plate inserts. (plates that are inserted into the bullet proof vest)In conjunction rifle plates are designed to stop the specified threat within the vest/plate combination. Some fragments may penetrate the plate, but are of reduced energy and are easily stopped by the ballistic vest. In-conjunction rifle plates are lighter, more comfortable, and less bulky than stand-alone plates. Stand-alone" plates are designed to stop ballistic threats using the plate alone. Ballistic vest is NOT required for this plate, as all the energy and fragments are stopped in the plate. Stand alone plates are usually reserved for tactical operations where the ammunition threat is unknown, or if the wearing of a ballistic vest is considered too cumbersome.
