Forthis reason the shield would normally be of an approximately rectangular shape. Theexact shape may be varied in order to fit in different types of carry bag, or to betterconform (for the purpose of comfort or protection) to the shape of the body whenunstowed or deployed and worn as a vest. When used as a vest, the invention is
preferably comprised of two or more armor panels that unfold or deploy to protect anarea of the front and back, and preferably also the side and lower abdomen, of the torso.The front armor panel, back armor panel, side armor panels, and lower abdomen armorpanel, are all located on the body by means of a support system. When stowed, the sideand lower abdomen armor panels are shaped to fit closely together as in a jigsaw puzzleas the middle layer of a three layer structure. The armor is designed to be unstowed andput on as a vest with no need for fastening or adjustment.
