You’ve Seen the Problem. You’re Done Taking Chances.
- Tired of asking if armor is truly compliant or just clever marketing.
- Frustrated with gear that’s heavy, bulky, and slows you down.
- Skeptical of overseas products with no verifiable testing.
- Burned by plates that promised “Level IV” but failed in the field.
- Needing protection you can wear all shift without fatigue — not a brick on your chest.
You’re not alone. What you need is professional-grade armor, built by people who’ve carried the weight and lived the mission.
Built by Veterans Who’ve Worn the Gear in Combat
We know what it means to trust your life to the equipment you wear. Many of us have been in situations where armor was the difference between coming home and not. That experience drives everything we build at TAC 11. We founded this company to deliver protection that works under real-world conditions — weight, heat, pressure, and uncertainty — without excuses and without compromise. Every plate, insert, and carrier is designed to keep you mobile, confident, and protected when failure is not an option.
- Ballistic Armor Plates: Lightweight rifle-rated protection tested and proven against real-world threats.
- Soft Armor Inserts: Thin, comfortable, and high-performance for long shifts and concealed use.

"TAC 11 truly cares. As our new SWAT team’s coordinator, I’ve tested plenty of gear, and TAC 11 stands out for quality and responsiveness. Their helmet, Noontime carrier, and 2.9 lb plates are lightweight, U.S.-made, and clearly designed by people with real-world experience. You pay once for reliable protection—not twice for cheap imports. I’ll be recommending TAC 11 to my agency."
"he TAC 11 ARK plates far exceeded my expectations. I wore SAPI plates in the Marines (2002–2007) and thought ceramic was as light as it got—until now. These ARK plates cut that weight in half, with both plates combined coming in under 5 lbs. For comparison, my old AR500 Level III plates weighed 16 lbs together, before adding any gear. On top of that, the ARK plates have an ergonomic curve that’s far more comfortable. Do yourself a favor—spend the money on quality. TAC 11 delivers unmatched protection at a fraction of the weight."
Straight Answers to the Questions That Matter Most
We don’t build products to chase trends or marketing claims. Every piece of gear we make must solve a real operational problem, be backed by data, and deliver a measurable performance advantage. No gimmicks. No shortcuts.
All TAC 11 products are designed, tested, and manufactured in the USA. We never outsource to foreign suppliers — because operational security and American craftsmanship are non-negotiable.
No. Our focus is on Level III+ and RF2 solutions that outperform many so-called “Level IV” plates in weight, thickness, and real-world reliability. Ask us why we don’t follow the crowd — we’ll show you the data.
Depending on the model, our rifle-rated plates weigh as little as 4.9 lbs and measure just 0.8 inches thick. That means less fatigue, more mobility, and armor you can actually wear all day.
Yes. We offer custom cuts, shapes, and performance specs tailored to your mission profile — because no two teams operate the same way.
