ds on its own is too flexible for a bullet proof vest...



It's almost as if you think it will be true if you say it enough times.

Since you like clues, here's one:

From January 8th, 2018 PR about the scope of their new army contract:

“The US ARMY’s choice to exercise the base contracts option period and to dramatically increase the total contract value gave us the ability to boost our research and development efforts substantially,” said Jon Rice, COO. “Under this expanded scope we are directed to develop new transgenics, with greater strength and toughness than anything we’ve ever seen before. With the allocation of the remaining contract funding, the US ARMY has now obligated all of the dollars committed in that contract award.”



Notice how Jon said "Under this expanded scope we are directed to develop new transgenics, with greater strength and toughness"? Toughness is a measure of strength multiplied by elasticity. So if they want to reduce elasticity in this new custom fiber, the sentance would read: "Under this expanded scope we are directed to develop new transgenics, with greater strength and strength".

The only place you've read that dragon silk is "too elastic for bullet proof vests" is on this board. Come on, admit it.
