After scans showed cracks in what were supposed to be bullet proof plates, the Ministry of Defence has ordered a major recall.
According to media reports today, the faults were discovered in ceramic plates, called Enhanced Combat Body Armour.
Every plate is being recalled for testing - with the RAF, Army and Navy owning a minimum of 120,000 sets.
If you have been injured as a result of faulty equipment, contact Hilary Meredith Solicitors today.
