Technically this is effective dmg soak for most firearms and anti-personel ordinance, EXCLUDING explosions (that's what Flak Armor is for) and really big guns (sufficiently large caliber makes any sort of armor practically useless since its wearer is not immune to kinetic forces).

it is useful for most situations GI can be involved with. LAs, HAs and Medics should consider it as an armor of choice, since they will find themselves way more often in fire exchange than Engineer, who is instead often found loitering around vehicles and thereby benefiting from Flak Armor instead due to higher incidence of exposures to explosive ordnance, or Infiltrator who has no practical benefit of it (unless having a clear death wish or some insane tactics in mind) and will often prefer other more utiitarian pieces of equipment (like adrenaline pump, or chameleon module for example)
