I was thinking about stating saving up for a plate carrier and plates.
I would definitely say you invest in that. Never know when ballistic plates can come in handy. I've used mine to toboggan down a dune before.
Ceramic ones? Aren't they pretty fragile?
Yeah they kinda are. Composite plates hold out a little better though. Thankfully I could still use it after that.
I was thinking about steel...
Well different materials have their ups and downs. Personally, if it weren't for the scorching heat, I'd have opted for steel plates. Russians have a helmet for their SF that's NIJ IV and made of titanium plates, bloody expensive and dunno how well soldiers would do with that on.
EDIT: Sfera STSh-81s were what they were called. The new SSSH-94 is made of steel though.
Anyway, I'm gonna have to leave you guys now. Nice seeing you all again.
