This agreement comes nine years after Army first made a request for more than 1.86 lakh bullet proof jackets.
Chairman and Managing Director of SMPP S C Kansal said that, “These bulletproof jackets will have ‘boron carbide ceramic’ which is the lightest material for ballistic protection. This makes SMPP BPJs the best of the class and will be able to provide ballistic protection at the lowest possible weight”.
