Feedback from shooters, law enforcement, military, security, and preparedness users across Europe.


★★★★★ – Surprisingly lightweight and extremely solid

Markus H., Stuttgart (DE)

I use the UNITAC™ NV – Ballistic Plate Level III for dynamic shooting practice. The weight is excellent for Level III, and the build quality feels very robust.


★★★★★ – Clean finish and perfect fit

Jonas R., Linz (AT)

The NV plates drop straight into my carrier with no play or rattle. Edges are sealed properly and there are no imperfections. Shipping to Austria was quick and uncomplicated.


★★★★★ – Comfortable curvature for long sessions

Daniel W., Zürich (CH)

The slight curve of the NV Plate III makes a real difference when shooting kneeling or prone. No pressure spots on the chest, even after several hours on the range.


★★★★☆ – Real protection, acceptable weight

Fabian K., München (DE)

These are proper Level III plates, not “training toys”, so the weight is realistic. For what they are, the balance between protection and comfort is very good. Would buy again.


★★★★★ – Serious EU-made armor

Patrick L., Salzburg (AT)

I wanted EU-made plates with traceable documentation. UNITAC delivers exactly that. The NV Plate III feels solid, with clear markings and serial number. Gives me confidence during courses.


★★★★★ – Sits stable in my duty carrier

Michael D., Hamburg (DE)

The plates sit perfectly in my issued carrier, no shifting when running or going prone. For duty training and preparedness scenarios, this is exactly what I was looking for.


★★★★★ – Professional impression from the first moment

Oliver Z., Dortmund (DE)

From packaging to finish, everything looks and feels professional. No chips, no cracks, no rough surfaces. The NV Plate III clearly is not cheap surplus.


★★★★☆ – Good balance between price and performance

Lucas E., Köln (DE)

I compared a lot of options before settling on these plates. The NV Plate III is not the lightest on the market, but for the price, the performance and build quality are excellent.


★★★★★ – Trusted choice for my training rig

Robert L., Wien (AT)

I run the NV plates in my training rig for carbine courses. The plates feel tight in the carrier and stay exactly where they should. For serious work and serious training, I trust this setup.


★★★★★ – Exactly what I wanted for preparedness

Stefan J., Graz (AT)

I bought a front and back NV Plate III for personal preparedness. The quality, markings and overall feel are on point. This doesn’t feel like budget gear at all.


★★★★★ – Very solid carrier integration

Andreas M., Innsbruck (AT)

The plates integrate cleanly with my plate carrier, no bulging or weird corners sticking out. I appreciate the clearly printed information and EU origin.


★★★★☆ – Robust and confidence inspiring

Jan P., Bremen (DE)

Definitely feels like serious armor. The outer coating is even and tough. Slightly heavier than I personally prefer, but I’ll take that over questionable protection any day.


★★★★★ – Ideal for vehicle and CQB courses

Christian B., Nürnberg (DE)

I use the NV plates in courses that involve getting in and out of vehicles and close quarters drills. They stay in place and don’t shift even with a lot of movement.


★★★★★ – Serious armor from a serious supplier

Thomas F., Hannover (DE)

After some bad experiences with no-name imports, I switched to UNITAC. The NV Plate III feels like a proper, controlled product, not mystery steel from somewhere unknown.


★★★★★ – Exactly as described, no surprises

Philipp K., Zürich (CH)

Dimensions, shape and curvature match the given specs. The plates dropped into my carrier and everything lined up. This is how it should be when you order armor.


★★★★★ – Solid choice for professional users

Marco G., Basel (CH)

I was looking for plates that I can also recommend to colleagues. The NV Plate III from UNITAC is now on the short list of systems I actually trust.


★★★★★ – Trusted for range days and duty drills

Alexander H., Wien (AT)

I use the plates mainly for training and drills, but they’re good enough that I would not hesitate to rely on them in a real incident. That says enough.


★★★★☆ – Very good, would love additional color options

Dominik S., Salzburg (AT)

The plates themselves are excellent. If there’s one small wish, it would be a different outer color option, but that’s purely aesthetics. Functionally they’re spot on.


★★★★★ – Quality that clearly isn’t budget surplus

Benjamin L., Berlin (DE)

You can tell at first touch that these are purpose-built plates. No sloppy coatings, no weird dimensions. Very clean work all around.


★★★★★ – Documentation and serial checks build trust

Oliver N., Düsseldorf (DE)

I like that UNITAC takes documentation seriously. Serial numbers, clear markings, and the ability to verify – this is how armor should be sold.


★★★★★ – My go-to plates for serious use

Florian R., Innsbruck (AT)

I’ve run other plates before, but these are now my primary set for anything serious. Comfort, protection and quality all line up here.


★★★★☆ – Solid performance on the range

Patrick G., Leipzig (DE)

After several full-day trainings, the NV Plate III has proven itself. No damage, no issues, and the carrier still fits well. I dock one star only because I’m picky on weight.


★★★★★ – Good choice for mixed training and preparedness

Matthias H., Stuttgart (DE)

I wanted a set of plates that work both for training and as part of a preparedness kit. These strike that balance perfectly.


★★★★★ – Feels like gear for professionals

Johannes B., Zürich (CH)

Nothing about these plates feels “civilian hobby toy”. The way they are built and marked feels like they’re aimed at real users, not just weekend warriors.


★★★★★ – Exactly what I expected from EU-made armor

Kevin S., Wien (AT)

Clean, robust, and well documented. This is the standard I expect when I specifically look for EU-made ballistic protection.


★★★★★ – Very comfortable helmet for long use

Martin S., Nuremberg (DE)

The UNITAC™ NV-2 Ballistic Helmet is extremely comfortable. Padding can be configured easily and I haven’t had any hotspots, even after long night exercises.


★★★★★ – Stable NVG mount, nothing loosens

Christian B., Graz (AT)

NVG mount stability was critical for me. The shroud on the NV-2 holds my device without flex or wobble. This is the main reason I chose this helmet.


★★★★☆ – Good fit, low-profile design

Fabian M., Augsburg (DE)

The helmet has a slim profile and doesn’t snag as easily as some bulkier models. Fit is good out of the box, only minor fine-tuning needed.


★★★★★ – Works great with ear pro and comms

Daniel F., Hanover (DE)

I run over-ear hearing protection with the NV-2 and it all fits together well. The rails take my cable management and light without drama.


★★★★★ – Stable, no movement during fast drills

Stefan G., Innsbruck (AT)

Once adjusted properly, the helmet does not move or bounce when sprinting or going to the ground. Exactly what I need for dynamic drills.


★★★★★ – Professional look and feel

Oliver H., Vienna (AT)

The finish is clean, the shell feels solid and there are no cheap plastic parts where it matters. This feels like kit designed for real work.


★★★★☆ – Great helmet, would love more color options

Patrick Z., Salzburg (AT)

Very happy with the comfort and stability. Only suggestion would be additional factory color options for different environments.


★★★★★ – Good compatibility with existing accessories

Jonas E., Berlin (DE)

My existing lights and mounts fit without any modification. The rails and shroud follow a standard pattern, which made integration easy.


★★★★★ – Reliable choice for night training

Matthias T., Zürich (CH)

I mainly use the NV-2 during low-light and night trainings. It does exactly what it should: stays in place and holds my NVG reliably.


★★★★★ – Comfort and stability in one package

Thomas R., Stuttgart (DE)

Many helmets are either comfortable or stable – this one manages both. Once dialed in, I don’t think about it anymore, which is the best compliment.


★★★★☆ – Quality helmet with only minor nitpicks

Benjamin P., Dortmund (DE)

The helmet is very well made and fits nicely. My only minor nitpick is that I had to swap out the chin strap buckle to match my existing kit, but that’s personal preference.


★★★★★ – Good helmet for mixed range and scenario training

Kevin L., Bremen (DE)

I use the NV-2 in both live fire and scenario-based training. It has held up perfectly so far and still looks almost new.


★★★★★ – Feels like gear I can rely on

Marco A., Vienna (AT)

The helmet doesn’t feel like a compromise piece. The way it is built gives the impression it’s meant for real conditions, not just for show.


★★★★★ – Strong shell and quality hardware

Philipp S., Zürich (CH)

The shell feels extremely solid, and the hardware (buckles, rails, screws) is free of cheap, flimsy parts. This is exactly what I want in a ballistic helmet.


★★★★☆ – Modern design, no nonsense

Florian M., Munich (DE)

Clean, modern look without unnecessary gimmicks. Everything on the helmet serves a purpose, which I appreciate.


★★★★★ – Excellent value compared to bigger brands

Patrick H., Hamburg (DE)

I’ve used helmets from some of the big names. For the price, the NV-2 holds up extremely well. Comfort and function are absolutely on point.


★★★★★ – Fits my head shape better than expected

Johannes K., Linz (AT)

I was worried about fit, as I have had issues with other helmets before. The NV-2, however, adjusted quickly and sits comfortably without pressure spots.


★★★★★ – Solid platform for night vision

Andreas F., Salzburg (AT)

The whole point for me was to have a solid platform for my NVG. This helmet does exactly that, no shifting, no flexing of the mount.


★★★★★ – My new primary training helmet

Matteo G., Basel (CH)

I retired my old bump helmet in favor of the NV-2. The difference in stability and comfort is very noticeable.


★★★★★ – Great combination of comfort and protection

Samuel R., Zürich (CH)

For long, high-intensity training days, this helmet manages to stay comfortable without compromising on protection and stability.


★★★★★ – Helmet + 2 plates bundle is a smart buy

Patrick W., Salzburg (AT)

I chose the bundle with NV-2 helmet and 2x NV Plate III. Getting a complete system in one order just made sense – everything matches and works together.


★★★★★ – One order, complete protection setup

Thomas L., Stuttgart (DE)

With one purchase I got head and torso protection from the same manufacturer. That alone removes a lot of guesswork and compatibility questions.


★★★★★ – Great for building a serious kit from scratch

Florian Z., Munich (DE)

I was essentially starting from zero. The bundle gave me a solid base system to build on, instead of mixing random pieces from different brands.


★★★★☆ – Strong value, fast EU shipping

Jonas T., Berlin (DE)

The price for helmet plus plates is more than fair, especially considering EU warehouse shipping. Everything arrived quickly and well packed.


★★★★★ – Ideal combo for training and preparedness

Kevin M., Vienna (AT)

The bundle gives me a single system that covers both my training days and my personal preparedness setup. Very happy with it.


★★★★★ – Everything feels matched and thought through

Matthias S., Graz (AT)

The way the plates and helmet work together suggests that this bundle is not a random bundle, but an intentionally designed system.


★★★★★ – Strong base kit for serious users

Michael K., Zürich (CH)

With this one purchase I got a base kit that I feel comfortable relying on. Nothing feels cheap or like an afterthought.


★★★★★ – No nonsense, just solid gear

Oliver F., Basel (CH)

The bundle doesn’t come with gimmicks or hype. It’s just solid, serious gear that does what it’s supposed to do.


★★★★☆ – Good deal compared to separate buying

Benjamin S., Hamburg (DE)

Buying the helmet and plates separately would have cost more and taken more time. The bundle is clearly priced to make sense.


★★★★★ – Clear markings, easy to document

Patrick D., Dortmund (DE)

All components came with clear markings and serials, which makes documentation on my side much easier. That matters if you take your gear seriously.


★★★★★ – Plates and helmet both exceeded expectations

Johannes R., Vienna (AT)

I initially only wanted plates but ended up ordering the helmet as well. Both products exceeded what I expected at this price level.


★★★★★ – Reliable foundation for my entire loadout

Matteo L., Munich (DE)

My entire loadout now builds on the UNITAC plates and helmet. Once I had them in hand, I stopped looking around for alternatives.


★★★★★ – Professionally presented and delivered

Samuel H., Linz (AT)

From ordering to unboxing, everything had a professional feel. This is not “gun show” gear – it’s clearly aimed at serious users.


★★★★★ – Exactly the kind of supplier I was looking for

Florian K., Zürich (CH)

EU-based, focused on ballistic protection and transparent about what they sell. That combination is rare enough that I plan to stay with UNITAC.


★★★★★ – Gear that feels like it was built for real missions

Alexander Z., Berlin (DE)

Both the NV plates and the NV-2 helmet give me the impression they were built with real missions in mind, not just marketing pictures. That’s the main reason I recommend them.
