Dragon body armour failed the temperature tests, above 30 degrees with low humidity and he plates loosen up, once a bullet stikes the small plates just move out of the way..turkey has weather above 30 degrees celsius, thus making dragon skin an expensive failure

and look at that its explaining the body armoure the americans useing now even thats not good

if i recommend them a body i reckon it should be the dragon body armoure lighter and better protection

me too but I think it will cost too much

and the u.s army tested it and they say it failed but i've seen videos where dragon skin is the best

but the weird thing is that many special forces and c.i.a. people wear dragon skin in iraq and the u.s. army banned it before testing. I think that the temperatue thing is not the issue

dragonskin is a controversial topic and I'm sure its is already discussed in this forum as it was in numerous ones. so it would be best to move the discussion there.

actually the CIA wear it in the US, its not in use in iraq, pinnacle are now testing a new resin that can withstand large amounts of heat so maybe in the next year or so it will be perfect...dragon skin had its NIJ rating taken away because of this problem

well I hope that it will be perfect because I think the concept is much better than interceptor.

Suleyman Shah (Ottoman Turkish: سليمان شاه Süleyman Şah), ( died 1227) The son of Kutalmış (Kutalmish) was father of Ertuğrul, who was, in turn, the father of Osman I, the founder of the Ottoman Empire.
It is said that Suleyman Shah drowned in the river Euphrates and buried in the vicinity, the place now called "Turk's Tomb" (Türk Mezarı) or "Turkish Cemetery" in the Jaber Castle and it is a sacred place for Turks.
In accordance with the Article 9 of the Treaty of Ankara (1921) signed between France and Turkey, the Jaber Castle is considered as a sovereign territory of Turkey.
In 1973, the castle was submerged into the reservoir lake of the newly built Tabka Dam. The tomb of Suleyman Shah was relocated to a designated area of 8,797 m² close to Karakozak village in Aleppo Governorate, in accordance with the negotiations between Turkish and Syrian governments.
Today, a squad of Turkish gendarmerie guards this symbolic place. The tomb and its place is the only exclave of the Republic of Turkey.

Epigraph in the Tomb of Süleyman Şah, reading "This is the grave of SÜLEYMAN BİN KAYA ALP, grandfather of Osman Gazi, the founder of the Ottoman Empire. He was drowned in the Euphrates along with two of his men, in search for a home for himself and his people. This grave had been relocated to this place in year 1973 from its original place in CABER, due to the construction of the TABKA dam.

Wow that new camo looks awesome!!! Where can I get it for a reasonable price as 205 USD is too much for that uniform can I get it somewhere in Turkey? And when is our troops going to start actually using body armour?

Tehy already do, but mountain commandos dont, just like the british royal marines in afghanistan, they think that mobility will save you life before a ceramic plate will

Thanks binzer that is big did not know for me, makes sense they get more ammo for the same weight as well, and they do fight in the hardest conditions. Does anyone know where I can get Turkish digital camo? In Turkey?

Yeah respect to them for what they do! youre best bet is either to wait until they come out for retail or if you know an officer in the military he could get you one
