I THINK it had the Kevlar panels, both front and back.&#13;&#10;I do know that most Kevlar products have a 5 year warranty. After that they are replaced so that is how these end up as surplus. Depending how they are stored/cared for, the Kevlar is usually still good but that is why it is sold as &amp;quot;Collectables&amp;quot; only due to liability. I would still trust my old replaced department vest which is 12 years old. <div class="bvseo-author">Answered by: Ken B</div> <div class="bvseo-pubdate">Date published: 2019-07-03</div> </div> </div> <div class="bvseo-question-answer" data-questionid="3613047"> <h2 class="bvseo-question"> What is the country of manufacture? </h2> <div class="bvseo-question-detail"> </div> <div class="bvseo-author">Asked by: Gecko45</div> <div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="4175796"> Thank you for your question.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;The British Surplus Police Ballistic Vest is made in the United Kingdom. <div class="bvseo-author">Answered by: Michelle Prod Specialist</div> <div class="bvseo-pubdate">Date published: 2019-05-29</div> </div> </div> <div class="bvseo-question-answer" data-questionid="3121279"> <h2 class="bvseo-question"> What was the protection rated for the vest for stab and ballistic? </h2> <div class="bvseo-question-detail"> </div> <div class="bvseo-author">Asked by: willy</div> <div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="3388806"> Thank you for your question.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Since this item is used, it cannot be properly rated. <div class="bvseo-author">Answered by: Derek Compliance Departme</div> <div class="bvseo-pubdate">Date published: 2019-03-01</div> </div> </div></div><script type="text/javascript"> if (document.getElementById('bvseo-questionsSection')) { document.getElementById('bvseo-questionsSection').style.display = 'none'; }</script><!--end-questions--><ul id="BVSEO_meta" style="display:none!important"> <li data-bvseo="bvDateModified">y_2019, m_11, d_15, h_15CST</li> <li data-bvseo="ps">bvseo_bulk, prod_bvqa, vn_bulk_3.0.2</li> <li data-bvseo="cp">cp_1, bvpage1</li> <li data-bvseo="co">co_hasquestionsanswers, tq_4</li> <li data-bvseo="cf">loc_en_US, sid_706027, prod, sort_[SortEntry(order=LAST_APPROVED_ANSWER_SUBMISSION_TIME, direction=DESCENDING)]</li> <li data-bvseo="diagnostics">clientName_sportmansguide</li></ul><!--end-bvseo-questions--><!--BVSEO|dz:Main_Site-en_US|sdk:v1.0.7.0-n|msg:timer 62ms -->
