An armor plate for body armor, comprising;

• a plurality of small ceramic tiles;
• wherein the plurality of small ceramic tiles are arcuately curved;
• wherein the plurality of small ceramic tiles are aligned in a plurality of rows;
• wherein the plurality of rows are vertically stacked;
• wherein a structural adhesive is placed over a front side and a back side of the armor plate;
• wherein the plurality of ceramic tiles are formed into a monolithic piece by activating the structural adhesive;
• and
• wherein the armor plate provides protection to ballistic impacts.

Multi-layer multi-impact ballistic armor formed of a plurality of layers, comprising:

• an armor plate;
• the armor plate formed of a plurality of small ceramic tiles;
• a structural adhesive positioned over the plurality of small ceramic tiles which holds the plurality of small ceramic tiles into a monolithic piece;
• at least one layer of ballistic material positioned behind the armor plate;
• a rigid backing plate positioned behind the at least one layer of ballistic material;
• a covering material covering the armor plate, the at least one layer of ballistic material and the rigid backing plate;
• and
• wherein the plurality of layers provide protection to ballistic impacts.
