X32: The first prototype made with UHMWPE tape system

With the introduction of this proprietary ballistic UHMWPE tape system, DSM Dyneema provides the ideal platform for lightweight, yet highly effective vehicle armor solutions.

Products derived from this new technology will allow armor designers and decision makers to balance the requirements for better performing vehicles, increased payloads, and room for future weight growth. In addition, they will address the need for better protection against dangerous and emerging threats.

Prototype 'X32' is the first prototype of this platform, currently being evaluated by a targeted group of key partners who have an urgent need to provide capable vehicle protection for the most difficult emerging threats, without crippling vehicles with weight.
