The DRDO developed the lightest bulletproof jacket for protection against the highest threat level 6. Defence Materials, Stores Research and Development Establishment, Kanpur has developed the lightest Bullet Proof Jacket. Bulletproof jackets will protect against 7.62 x 54 R API (Level 6 of BIS 17051) ammunition. The bulletproof jacket was successfully tested at Terminal Ballistics Research Laboratory (TBRL), Chandigarh.
