Lightweight Rifle Protection for Tactical Speed and Everyday Readiness

When performance meets precision, the result is protection you can depend on. The MIRA Tactical 3811LV Series Level III+ ICW Body Armor Plates combine Hesco’s cutting-edge composite technology with MIRA’s uncompromising safety standards—delivering advanced rifle-rated protection that doesn’t weigh you down.

Built in the USA and certified to NIJ 0101.06 standards, these Level III+ ICW plates offer elite ballistic performance when paired with certified Level IIIA soft armor, making them ideal for professionals, first responders, and prepared civilians who demand both strength and mobility.

Level III+ ICW Protection. Slim, Strong, and Ready.

Frequently Asked Questions About the 3811LV Series Armor

What does “ICW” mean? ICW stands for In Conjunction With. These plates must be used with certified Level IIIA soft armor to provide full rifle-rated protection.

How does the 3811LV differ from the 3811 Series? The 3811LV is thinner and lighter than the 3811, designed for ICW configurations that prioritize agility and flexibility over standalone use. The 3811, by contrast, provides standalone Level III+ protection.

Are these plates compatible with standard carriers? Yes. The 3811LV plates are compatible with most standard plate carriers, including both Shooter Cut and SAPI Cut systems.

How should I care for and store my plates? Clean the surface gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme heat. Do not submerge or machine wash.
