Freind, considering Pinnacle lied to the U.S. Air Force about their products, I don't think any branch of the U.S. Armed Forces is going to be using any of their products, ever. Would you you want to wear a vest manufactured by someone whose deliberately lied about it's threat level in the past?
Further, Dragon Skin isn't all the hype suggests it to be. Not only is it actually heavier than the standard issue with all plates (yes, I know it claims to be lighter but it's not), the adhesive used in connecting the scales has been known to fail during adverse weather conditions which means those scales fall down leaving entire chunks of the torso or other areas exposed.
As with anything in life, I recommend reading the fine print.
