Bullet-proof vests and anti-riot vests from the Czech Republic were the big crowd-pullers during the three-day Milipol Qatar exhibition. Besides the software applications and solutions for the armed forces developed by the companies from the European country, the protective gears and helmets and apparels used for soldiers from the Czech Republic were also on display. Inquiries found that the bullet-proof vests and other accessories made in the Czech Republic have a loyal clientele in the armies of some of the Middle East and North African (Mena) countries.
