What is described as stopping ballistic rounds in ambush countermeasures?

• A. Cover will stop ballistic rounds (engine block, concrete wall)
• B. Concealment stops ballistic rounds
• C. Your weapon stops ballistic rounds
• D. Back-up will stop ballistic rounds

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is the difference between cover and concealment. Only a solid barrier that can physically halt a bullet—like an engine block or a concrete wall—is able to stop ballistic rounds. That kind of protection is what we call cover. Concealment hides you but does not stop bullets, so it doesn’t provide the stopping power described. Your weapon itself isn’t a shield that reliably stops rounds, and “back-up” isn’t a physical barrier either. So the description of stopping ballistic rounds fits a solid barrier used as cover, such as the engine block or concrete wall.
