Abstract
Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for protecting a neck of an individual from a threat. In one implementation, a ballistic collar includes a base having a body with a first side portion and a second side portion. A first arm extends along a first longitudinal contour towards the first side portion, and the first arm extends distally along a first contour defined by a first proximal segment and a first distal segment. A second arm extends along a second longitudinal contour towards the second side portion. The second arm extends distally along a second contour defined by a second proximal segment and a second distal segment. Each of the first arm, the second arm, and the base is independently movable relative to each other.
