Meet the NIJ Certified LEVEL IV Crusader 2.0 Kit — a two-plate set paired with the Crusader 2.0 Plate Carrier. It’s built for serious protection without the fuss, so you can focus on the mission, not the fashion show.

Key Features & Design

• NIJ Certified Level IV — rated to stop armor-piercing rounds up to 30-06 Black Tip, plus lower calibers like 5.56,.223, and 7.62x39.
• Front & Back Plates — (2) 10" x 12" plates with a curved contour for comfort and extended wearability.
• Material — Ceramic (AL203) designed to endure multiple hits while keeping the weight manageable at about 8 pounds per plate.
• Contoured & Functional — SAPI swimmers cut corners improve mobility and interoperability with gear while maintaining vital-area protection.
• Plate Carrier Included — Crusader 2.0 Plate Carrier comes with the package for a complete front and back setup (with the intention of full coverage; sizing and fit are user-dependent).
• Size Range — fits Small to Large plates (10" x 12", 1" thick) for the majority of customers.

What’s Included

This package bundles two NIJ-certified 10x12 front/back plates with the Crusader 2.0 Plate Carrier. You get a complete setup to protect your torso without needing to assemble extra parts. And yes, you save $30 compared to buying items separately.

Sizing & Fit

Plate size: 10" x 12" (Small to Large), 1 inch thick; Weight: ~8 pounds per plate. For best results, determine plate length so the top edge sits near the jugular notch and the bottom edge extends roughly 4.5 inches above the service belt to protect vital organs. This sizing guidance is provided to help you choose responsibly; exact fit is the buyer’s responsibility to verify for full vitals coverage.
