Plate carriers and helmets are certainly indispensable and extremely necessary things in war, but they do not provide full protection. And we want to protect our boys as much as possible. That’s why today we are expanding the body protection area of the fighter.
We plan to purchase five M-Tac gorgets with ballistic packages. This piece of equipment provides round neck and upper back protection from shrapnel. Meanwhile, the gorget does not restrict head movement freedom, even considering the helmet.
We are not stopping at this point and we smoothly descend to the protection from the shrapnel of the biceps, shoulder joint, and arteries. This will be facilitated by the M-Tac shoulder protectors with ballistic packages, for which we also plan to purchase five pieces. Just like the previous design, shoulder protection does not hinder the military’s manoeuvrability.
And last but not least, we want to buy five M-Tac HPS (shoulder-belt system) with ballistic packages. The HPS is designed to relieve the shoulders and spine by shifting the weight to the legs. Paired with ballistic packages, this system will increase the body’s protection area from shrapnel damage.

The fundraising is 240,000 UAH for a car! We are collecting “in advance” because, when a fundraising request comes in, it was urgently needed yesterday.
We are raising funds for 30 fully equipped medical kits and 2 backpacks for combat medics (in the absence of immediate evacuation, the contents of one such backpack are sufficient for at least two days in the field).
