The aeroengine developer AECC is also in the business of making body armor and helmets. On display are the company's polyethylene bullet proof vests, ceramic shields, aramid helmets, and synthetic sapphire armor plates, etc.

The second display item from the right is a synthetic sapphire armor plate:

Logical development, considering the material science utilized in turbofan engines can be utilized in other sectors as well. Compare with that turbofan engines which will take years before mature model(s) put into serial production, body armour production can utilize existing production line. Being SOE means AECC has "extra mission(s)" should the state calls for it.

Still just the digital low-light monocular but an older housing design circa~2020. Example of the older housing pictured.
For reference this was still when the monocular had the offset housing and had export marketing for a commercial variant in 2019 sporting an 18650-battery module instead of the still retained wired battery connector for the PLAs model.
