A ballistic panel carrier jacket is disclosed. The jacket of this invention comprises a front section and a back section. The back section has a back pocket attached thereto having an opening for receiving a back ballistic panel. The front section has a plurality of front pockets attached thereto having a housing pouch for receiving a front ballistic panel and a receiving pocket for receiving and securing the pouch of the front ballistic panel such that the front right and front left pockets interact with one another such that a section of one is received within another. The carrier jacket of the present invention also discloses a false pocket breakaway section that functions as a Hidden Draw System (HDS) that allows a user access their firearm legally from the holster, quickly and discreetly.

A protective mantel and accessory hub includes a primary yoke configured to be worn underneath an armor carrier. Sliding attachment points removably connect the armor carrier to the upper protector to allow for mobility and articulation. Accessories such as a throat guard and deltoid guards are removably attached to the mantel. Shoulder suspension members are inserted into the primary yoke to support and distribute the weight of the armor carrier. The armor carrier includes a magnetically attachable front accessory panel and zippered pouches on the front and back to receive and retain body armor plates.

A rollable armor panel, and a rollable ballistic shield that includes the rollable armor panel is described. The rollable armor panel includes an adhesive-coated first ballistic fabric, a plurality of ballistic tiles arranged on and attached to one side of the first ballistic fabric, and a lattice arrangement of adhesive-coated ballistic fabric attached to the ballistic tiles and located opposite to the one side, the lattice having openings over the ballistic tiles, the armor panel being flexible enough to permit rolling of the armor panel into a rolled state. In order to facilitate rolling, the fabric lattice on the rear side of the imbricated array of wrapped ceramic tiles permits lifting of one side of a tile relative to another along the rolling direction. Further, the fabric-encapsulated wrapped imbricated ceramic is attached to a ballistic fabric backer in such a way that layers can slide over each other during rolling and unrolling. Attachment points of the various components of the armor are designed to return those components into alignment when the shield is deployed flat from its rolled state.
