Indian defence company MKU Limited is making a significant impact at Eurosatory 2024 with its groundbreaking range of female body armour, designed to meet the growing demand for tailored protective gear for women in the armed forces and law enforcement.
With 189 countries integrating women into their militaries and 13 nations featuring female Ministers of Defence, the need for specialized equipment has never been greater.
MKU's innovative line of ballistic vests, plate carriers, and armour inserts addresses the shortcomings of traditional body armour, which often fails to meet the specific needs of female personnel. The company's Radial Design Technique allows the armour to contour to the female form, providing a comfortable and secure fit that enhances mobility and comfort.
MKU's female body armour offers several key advantages, including an ergonomic fit tailored to the female physique, enhanced mobility for tactical operations, breathable materials for comfort in harsh conditions, and a lightweight and flexible design that minimizes fatigue without compromising protection.
The growing number of women in defence roles worldwide, as seen in navies, special operations units, and conscription programs, underscores the importance of such specialized equipment.
"We are incredibly proud to showcase our range of female body armour at Eurosatory 2024," said Neeraj Gupta, Managing Director of MKU. "This represents a significant step forward in our mission to empower women in uniform."
By addressing the specific needs of female personnel, MKU is not only enhancing their safety and comfort but also solidifying their crucial role in defence and law enforcement. The company's commitment to empowering women in uniform is a testament to its dedication to innovation and inclusivity.
