Armor question

Post by ohiohmmwv » Mon Mar 19, 2018 4:37 pm

I’m reviewing the armor in the 24P TM. What’s the difference between the armor listed for serial numbers 241953 and below and the Enhqnced IAP armor for the higher serial numbers. Most of the parts look almost identical, although different part numbers.

If you look at the pictures in the TM, you will see that the later style uses different rocker panel pieces. The older style were made up of two long pieces, one for the front and one in the back and they were reinforced with kevlar. The newer style are thicker and heavier and they have a protrusion on the top so the non-striker latched doors can latch. Those doors have a latch at the top and bottom.

See if this tm will help for the armor kits:
