The document compares test levels between the VPAM testing standard and other European standards (DIN EN and TR ballistic vest) for evaluating the resistance of materials and constructions against ballistic threats. It provides a table that maps the VPAM test levels 1 through 4 to the threat types and corresponding standards they are meant to protect against, such as handgun rounds like 9mm or .357 caliber.
