    I made an excel 2010 file with a selection list and RE lookup for DPW. I think it needed to be 2007 or above (xlsx) in order to do the lookup.

    I also did a E-Factor formula if you enter the mm or penetration
    = 48 * 2.5^(3.322*(LOG(B13) - 1.4049))

    You can use this if you have a prior version of excel where B13 is the pen value in mm.

    I have never really used these formulas (my gaming system uses Guns, Guns, Guns), so if there are errors let me know.

    For the excel file enter/select the data in the yellow fields and the results are in the green fields.

      When I click on the attachment is downloads attachment.php, but if I rename it to "morrow_ex.xlsx" it works fine.

      I'll go thru the formula to see how it stands up.

      Thank you.

          IE 11.

          It is most likely something stupid with IE11 security settings.

          I see where I was wrong with my formula in my spreadsheet of formulas.

                    The Bofors 3A-HEAT-T uses 1 Kg of Octol, so it will have a DPW of 2678.

                    The M344A1 should be 1.27 Kg of Comp B, not 1.0 Kg as I stated. So it's DPW will be 2962.

                      If you don't already have one........ get an account for scribd.com.

                      Many military manuals end up there, I have the ammunition data sheets for reference. Some posted the 2011 World Wide Recognition guide from the DoD there too.

                          Level IV Armor Class: 21
                          I worked this chart up awhile ago, and I like your chart as well. What do you think the AC is NIJ III+



                          I'm working on an update for this chart as well. Transparent Armor (or Bullet Resistant Glass), is a little harder to find specs on it, but I'm making headway on this front.

                            NIJ III+

                            I have the the Ballistic Resistance of Body Armor NIJ Standard - 0101.06 and I couldn't find a listing for Level III+. Technically there isn't even a Level V, but because of the protection provided of the highest level of Dragon Skin Body Armor the term Level V is applied and the specifications are classified by both DOJ, DOS and DOD. I just kind of guesttimated and could be as much as 4 to 6 points higher.

                            PS> Level III+ may refer to Level III with Stab Protection, So its Level III Ballistic Plus whatever rating of stab protection, normally Level I.

                              I've looked around for it as well. I see it referenced by a few manufactures, but don't see it in the NIJ standards either. I think it is NIJ III + AK47 resistant, but not completely sure.

                              I thought Dragon Skin was no longer made And NIJ had withheld there certification of it as well.

                                Pinnacle Armor

                                Pinnacle Armor, the maker of Dragon Skin body armor, is still around as far as I have been able to find they are still making the armor along with other products. As of 2007 the Level III armor had NIJ certification of the 6 year operational life and the SOV-4000 (Level V) is made but is restricted to sale to government agencies only. SOV-2000 (Level III) and the SOV-3000 (Level IV).
