Armor Express Gemini Level IIIA/Spike 3 - Revolution Carrier

Does the spike protection cover the entire ballistic pad or is it just a plate? The reason I ask, is because most prison stabbings do not occur from a direct blow to the chest. Inmates aim for the soft spots behind the collarbone, by the kidneys, or along the sides of the abdomen, where a plate would not offer protection.
The Spike III protection encompasses the entire ballistic pad, offering stab resistance throughout the vest.
