ALCARBON-Composite Metal -Ballistic Protection Test -
First detailed test results for four combinations are show on the next page.
Four samples were tested by an independent Canadian testing company. In the

Bosik Technologies Limited.

AlCarbon are still working on reducing the overall thickness slightly and the
