The ”impact penalty” delivered by its ammunition contributes to the realism of FX® interactive training. To ensure safe and realistic training, yet still allow the impact to be felt, Simunition® developed a full line of protective equipment for both men and women. The full line includes a head protector, a throat protector, a groin protector as well as a pants, a pair of gloves, a vest and a sleeves. These components are for use exclusively with FX® Marking Cartridges. They are comfortable and lightweight and allow participants to move as freely and naturally as possible. Simunition® policy requires users to wear the only approved Simunition® FX® protective mask, as well as throat and groin protection when training with FX® Marking Cartridges.
