Backface Deformation (BFD) Summary
This test used 7.62 × 51 mm, 149-grain M80 FMJ rounds under the NIJ 0101.07 RF1 (Modified) protocol.
All shots resulted in no penetration.
The backface deformation values were:
36.9 mm, 29.0 mm, 39.3 mm, 36.8 mm, 40.7 mm, 38.5 mm
These numbers show how much the plate pushed into the clay after impact.
Lower deformation means less blunt-force trauma.
Overall:
A BFD range of 29–41 mm is acceptable for the M80 threat and remains below the common industry reference of 44 mm.
The plate stopped every round and kept deformation within a safe range.
Backface Deformation (BFD) Summary
This test used 7.62 × 39 mm, 123-grain MSC rounds under the NIJ 0101.07 RF1 (Modified) protocol.
All shots resulted in no penetration, meaning the plate successfully stopped every round.
The backface deformation values recorded were:
22.6 mm, 23.2 mm, 18.3 mm, 19.3 mm, 18.9 mm, 20.0 mm
These values show how much the plate was pushed into the clay backing after impact.
Lower deformation means better energy absorption and reduced blunt-force trauma.
Overall:
A BFD range of 18–23 mm is considered excellent for the 7.62×39 mm MSC threat and is far below the typical industry reference of 44 mm.
The plate stopped every round and maintained very low deformation.
