The Advanced Bomb Suit (ABS) is a full body ensemble that protects the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) soldier from threats associated with IEDs, including those related to fragmentation, blast overpressure, impact, heat, and flame. The ABS uses new material technology and design to improve protection, comfort, and ergonomics. The suit is constructed from Kevlar with an outer anti-static cover of 50/50 Nomex/Kevlar and comprises a jacket, crotchless trousers, groin cup, and rigid ballistic panels. To minimize weight and maximize flexibility, protection is provided at various levels, specific to body regions, based on susceptibility to wounds.
