Abstract: The invention concerns a panel for protection against projectiles, splinter, etc. The panel is primarily arranged to supplement the outer shell of a vehicle such that the overall protection against such projectiles is considerably increased without the weight of the vehicle or the like being increased in any essential aspect. The panel includes a two digit number of layers of woven fibers, made from yarns of aramid or corresponding material. The layers are put on top of each other in the direction of incidence of a projectile etc. against the panel.

Abstract: A garment for personal protection against both shots from firearms and stabs from stabbing weapons, wherein the garment comprises an outer covering, an inner covering, and a shot-absorbing unit located between the outer covering and the inner covering. The shot-absorbing unit includes: (i) a plurality of first layers of woven fibers with different mesh sizes, the first layers being flexibly fixed relative to one another and being positioned in mutually different directions, (ii) a plurality of second layers of woven fibers with different mesh sizes, the second layers being flexibly fixed relative to one another and being positioned in mutually different directions, and (iii) at least one intermediate member provided between the first layers and the second layers, the intermediate member being flexibly fixed relative to at least one of the first layers and having mutually interlinked and at least partially mutually movable rings which are made of a material which is capable of resisting sharp objects.
