Real-world Credibility
We have multiple confirmed saves during the Israel-Hamas war. When the stakes are life or death, we don’t just talk about effectiveness — we prove it.
Our story. Our mission. Our gear in action.
About Us
IGY6 DEFENSE
IGY6 DEFENSE was founded and continues to operate by combat veterans and special operations professionals who live by one standard above all: gear must save lives — including ours. We’re not just designing and selling our products — we are end-users. At IGY6 DEFENSE, we design, create, test, and field ultralight body armor, tactical gear, helmets, shields, and support systems built for the real world — from urban missions stateside to the most demanding combat zones around the world. Our mission is simple: provide high-performance protection and comfort that doesn’t weigh you down.
Our Standards
What Sets Us Apart
Every product we create reflects our combat-tested experience, our commitment to survivability, and our responsibility to those who protect and defend.
Built by Operators
Every piece of gear is created by those who will wear these products — on missions, in the field, in combat. The same gear we trust with our lives is what we offer to our customers.
Lightweight, High Protection
Our ultralight rifle plates, modular plate carriers, helmets, and support systems are engineered to minimize burden while maximizing survivability and comfort.
Trust & Transparency
We share real user feedback, stand behind our products, and maintain a community of warriors, first responders, and defenders who test our products’ limits and validate our claims.
