Hey,
After lots of searching on different site and on google, I can't seem to find what armor the US would be using (If any, that is) during the very late stages of the Cold war, during the mid 1980's.

It's for my M81 camouflage skins, and I have no idea what to skin onto the heavy soldier models.



Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

From what i remember seeing at the time it was something like this BODY ARMOR FRAGMENTATION VEST FLAK JACKET NO RESERVE - eBay (item 380052892781 end time Aug-12-08 19:01:40 PDT) i think, hope this helps.

wow those look sweet!

Id suggest to look at world in conflict (game, not sure how accurate it is) but thats all i got, sorry.

Thanks, Undies! I'll use those for it.

Maybe
Trying to get as much done myself, then maybe collect some people to help me. Not sure though, I might just release the skins I make to the public.

Didn't really have armor in the cold war as we hadn't developed Kevlar and ceramic technology to a point where we were sure it could stop bullets.



That would have been what they had. That wouldn't stop bullets, just fragmentation. It got upgraded to hold plates in the 90s.
