Kevlar Vest is an armor appearing in Jagged Alliance, Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games Jagged Alliance 2 and Jagged Alliance: Back in Action.
Description[]
"Third generation kevlar technology with near ballistic invulnerability, the vest offers full-wrap protection from high-velocity handguns and shrapnel, while its interweaved fibers lessen damage and reduce shock." - Jagged Alliance
"The ballistic panels on this vest are made from 28 piles of Kevlar. It wraps around your shoulders, neck and sides, and includes a stowable groin protector. The waist and chest straps are fully adjustable." - Jagged Alliance 2
Kevlar Vests are the first form of torso protection you find in Jagged Alliance, and the second in Jagged Alliance 2 and beyond. They provide reliably basic protection. They can be enhanced with Compound 17 to form Treated Kelvar Vest though it is recommend to save the C-17s for the Spectra Shields and Spectra Helmet.

- Kevlar Vest can be treated with Compound 17 to increase its defense by 10%, resulting in the Trt. Kevlar Vest.
"Through the miracle of Compound 17 technology, this treated Kevlar Vest now offers the possibility of added assurance and protection from projectile penetration." - Trt. Kevlar Vest description in Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games
Jagged Alliance 2[]
- As with all armor, Kevlar Vests can be treated with Compound 18 or Royal Jelly to increase its protective strength, resulting in Compound 18 Kevlar Vest and Coated Kevlar Vest, respectively.
