Reviews & Tips
1. Nucleon PLASMA Pro Level 2 armor on both shoulders and elbows delivers the highest level of impact protection in the standard Missile V3 specification
2. Tech-Air 7x Compatible enables integration with Alpinestars’ most advanced airbag protection system
3. DFS seamless phantom TPU external shoulder protectors provide friction control at the critical contact zone alongside the PLASMA Pro underneath
1. At £589.99 it’s a premium investment primarily justified by serious sport riding and track day use
2. The absence of the S-R10-specific Aero-hump makes it a step below the Ignition for riders who own the Supertech R10 helmet
3. Premium race leather construction requires careful maintenance and conditioning
The Missile V3 Leather Jacket is a premium racing sport jacket derived directly from MotoGP, bringing advanced racing technology to a road leather jacket at a step below the Ignition variant. Premium bovine race leather provides the core abrasion resistance, and extended technical stretch panels on the chest, upper back, inner arms, armpits, and waist area with PU reinforcement on the back panels deliver coverage and freedom of movement across the riding position. DFS seamless phantom TPU external shoulder protectors handle friction control, alongside Nucleon PLASMA Pro Level 2 armor on both the shoulders and elbows.
Tech-Air Ready and Tech-Air 7x Compatible makes it compatible with Alpinestars’ most advanced airbag system. A detachable thermal liner (80g body/60g sleeves) handles cooler conditions, and localized perforations on the lower front, back, and sleeves provide airflow management in warmer weather. A waterproof inner compartment, fixed mesh liner with internal protection pockets, and pant connection zipper complete the practical specification. CE certified to Category II EN17092-3:2020 AA Class.
