OTAMAN GEN4 V5+ Class 6 Body Armor with Extended Protection Area, Color Pixel

OTAMAN Gen4 V5+ Bulletproof Vest — this model provides extended full-body protection while maintaining a balance between comfort and reliability. Its total weight is 10 kg, which is due to the expanded Class 2 ballistic protection area according to DSTU standards. In its base configuration, the V5+ vest delivers Class 6 protection (DSTU) — ensuring resistance to fragments, ricochets, and automatic rifle fire.

• Chest, abdomen, back, sides, neck, shoulder, and groin protection

• 4 rigid magazine pouches

• Class 6 ceramic ballistic plates

The vest can also be equipped with larger Class 6 plates (27×35 cm, XL) — the standard set includes 25×30 cm plates.

Key Advantages

1. Durability

Made from CORDURA 1000D — a fire-resistant, high-strength fabric (50,000+ abrasion cycles), moisture-repellent, and invisible in night vision optics.
The quick-release system (on shoulders and sides) allows for instant removal in emergency situations, providing medics fast access.

2. Protection

The extended coverage area fully shields the front, sides, and back — outperforming most standard plate carrier designs.

3. Comfort

The ergonomic design evenly distributes weight, shifting load from shoulders to the back and abdominal muscles, significantly improving comfort and reducing fatigue during prolonged wear.

Origin and Design

The OTAMAN (Improved Ballistic Vest, Class 2 DSTU) is inspired by the legendary U.S. IOTV (Improved Outer Tactical Vest) used by the U.S. Army in Afghanistan, Syria, and Iraq.
Renowned for its maximum protection area, the IOTV system became the foundation for OTAMAN, integrating modern materials and an advanced quick-release mechanism for rapid emergency removal.
