Also this infographic needs some updating badly, since it's nearly a year old. Notably:
1. Adept has come out with two test reports in support of the Colossus' PM-12 rating, although there are some inconsistencies (namely the BFD going up by 10mm in the newer test - same plate same round MAYBE different clay) discussed previously. The real issue is that they spent three years sending plates to youtubers but are seemingly afraid of the NIJ. No certs!
2. Soft armor section needs to be finished.
3. The plate selection is obviously super thin. The issue is that many Euro armor outfits that sell to civs are just flipping white-label C / B-grade China plates. Yeah, you often gotta buy Chinese, but stay with Militech if you're going to do that, or Longfri.
4. Is there any update from Adept about the Colossus Heavy or was that thing just an youtube stunt? It's more-or-less just the Colossus with a 0.3"-thicker backer, so I fail to see the manufacturing concerns unless, again, they have an issue with consistency and/or the plate runs hot on BFD - which is almost certainly the case.
