Point Blank Solutions Inc a leader in the field of protective body armor, announced that the Company will showcase several of the most technologically advanced protective armor systems available, at the 53rd Annual Meeting and Exposition of the Association of the United States Army (AUSA). The conference will be held October 8-10, 2007 at the Washington Convention Center in Washington, DC.

Point Blank Solutions will be exhibiting several life saving and protective solutions, among them the AOTV (Advanced Outer Tactical Vest). The AOTV is the latest innovation in body armor design and ballistic technology.

Versions of the AOTV are available for the US Armed Forces, Law Enforcement Agencies, and International Military and Law Enforcement with custom ballistic packages to meet the respective threats for each customer.

Its proprietary ballistic package extracts the maximum performance in a hybridized armor system. The AOTV offers greater maneuverability with its lightweight, comfortable design.

By comparison, one of the Military versions of the AOTV is 21.5% lighter and 16% thinner than the Interceptor Outer Tactical Vest (OTV) and the Improved Outer Tactical Vest (IOTV).

The current version of the IOTV, which was deployed to the U.S. Army earlier this year, is also displayed. The IOTV incorporates many of Point Blank's innovations, including ergonomic solutions for improved weight distribution.

A version of the patentedSelf-Suspending Ballistic System (SSBS) keeps ballistic panels in place, preventing sagging or bunching that can expose vulnerable areas. This results in a lighter, more flexible vest with increased coverage.

The IOTV also comes equipped with a quick release system that enables it to be removed with one pull, saving valuable time when every second makes a difference in the chance of survival.

The Company will also have on display many of its Armed Forces products, including the Interceptor OTV, Deltoid Axillary Protection System (DAPS), Enhanced Side Ballistic Insert (ESBI) Carrier and a host of other protective solutions including new, innovative designs for the next generation of body armor systems.
