In 1996, The US Marine Corps Commandant General Charles C. Krulak outlined his theory of the Full Spectrum Operation that he named the “Three Block War” (3BW). ”In one moment in time, our service members will be feeding and clothing displaced refugees - providing humanitarian assistance. In the next moment, they will be holding two warring tribes
apart – conducting peace-keeping operations. Finally, they will be fighting a highly lethal mid-intensity battle. All the same day, all within three city blocks. It is what we call the Three Block War.”
In order to operate and be effective in the 3BW, soldiers need to have light weight, modular and multifunctional equipment
that enables them to adapt the protection and equipment according to rapid changes in situation, mission and threat level. In response to this, we created the Full Spectrum Protection concept (FSP), a holistic personal protection and load carrying system that connects the diverse missions characterized by modern and future operations.
The FSP concept enables the user to adapt appearance, protection and equipment through a variety of missions such as delivering humanitarian aid, patrolling the streets, controlling crowd or fighting a battle.
A modern body armor system consists of several components optimized to work together. The cooperation of all fabrics and components result in a
perfect product. Shape, function and location of the components must also be precisely considered.
A perfect product demands a broad knowledge and experience material of technology, body armor design, human anatomy and ergonomics of end user, to name a few. ergonomics end user Working with the premium developers of ballistic fabrics and the market
leaders within ballistic protection, NFM® is able to offer effective and comfortable ballistic solutions with excellent energy absorption properties, tenacity and impact resistance. And all of this, with an outstanding cost/performance ratio.
In summary, the FSP concept enhances the initiative, capabilities and the survivability of the end user.
Since the 1990’s the borders between war
and peace operations have become less
distinct. Operations of war, peace and crisis
can occur in any sequence, simultaneously and
in immediate proximity of one another.
The FSP concept enables the user to adapt appearance,
protection and equipment through the whole spectrum
of missions such as delivering humanitarian aid, patrolling
the streets, crowd control or fighting a battle.

Technologies enhancing fightability and survivability
NFM® markets and manufactures products, services and technologies enhancing
fightability and survivability of military and law enforcement professionals.
Our product performance is based upon four main design aspects:
function, ergonomics, materials and validation.
Function
In close dialogue with end users, NFM® develops a wide range of protective components.
These fulfill the demanding, fast-changing needs of the military and law enforcement. For
example, our lightweigh components are highly adaptable to change in mission objectives and
climate conditions. We also aim to protect against most environmental and man-made threats.
In addition, we specialize in signature management, making our components IR-protective.
Ergonomy
We have made ergonomics one of our research priorities,
enhancing comfort and mobility for our end users.
raw matErials
By running an accurate quality management process and partnering
with some of the world’s leading raw material suppliers, NFM® offers
unique products in terms of performance and life cycle cost.
Validation
NFM® has set a high standard for constant internal testing
and accept only the best from our production.
Our solutions take a load off your shoulders

This ballistic model represents the core way of thinking within NFM®: all properties
effect one another within the triangle. For example, by increasing mobility, this
in turn will effect the level of survivability and lethality within the system.
Body Armor r&d
The rising number of modified threat specifications that combine typical and special bullets call for new
sophisticated “hybrid” solutions. Combinations of fabrics, laminates, shields and coated materials, all based
on premium quality ballistic materials are state-of-the-art responsed to the challenging demands.
As NFM® is partnering with the world leaders in ballistic materials, we are always able to
provide our clients with a solution that will comply or exceed their requirements.
High quality and performance antiballistic composites•
High performance / weight ratio•
Available in different shapes and sizes•
Individually shaped and tailor made for a perfect fit and protection•
Multi-hit features•
NFM® develops and manufactures advanced composite armor using the most
advanced low-weight, anti-ballistic materials on the market.
Combining inhouse developed and patented technologies, NFM® produces armor with an extremely high anti-ballistic performance.
Most ballistic ceramic plates have a secure area starting
5 cm from the edge. Our unique plates contain a secure
area starting only 2 cm from the edge, giving the end
user a 60% higher active area of protection.
Using our patented thermoplastic add-on technology enables
the active protection area to reach out to the edges and corners
of the plate, enhancing the plate’s multi hit performance
and edge shot capacity. By using the latest technologies in
materials and manufacturing, we can reduce the total weight,
obtain higher mobility and increase the overall protection.
