The invention provides flexible body armour comprising a flexible carrier layer (30) and a plurality of mutually staggered layers of armour plates (10) mounted on the carrier layer such that the plates are rotatable at least to a limited degree and form a continuous protective layer. The plates may be disc-like and rotatable about their centres. The plates in each layer are preferably orientated in a plane. The plates are mounted on the carrier layer by means of rivets or studs (22). |
