Improved handling with regard to putting on or taking off the protective clothing unit according to the invention is also ensured by the fact that the protective clothing unit in the context of the present invention, as stated below, is not firmly connected to the outer clothing underneath, but rather through independent fixing elements is held in position, so to speak, loosely or unconnected on the outer clothing, which not least also improves work safety, since the fixing elements ensure a firm hold or a firm positioning when worn or used, so that slipping or shifting of the protective clothing unit is effectively counteracted.
  • the protective clothing unit according to the invention with the underlying clothing items is therefore an independent unit that is independent of the outer clothing underneath when worn or used. Because the protective clothing unit can be put on or handled separately, so to speak, independently of any underlying outer clothing, which can be equipped with an NBC protection function, for example, corresponding outer clothing with an NBC protection function can be used permanently, so to speak, in the application or use case worn and, in specific cases of use or need, supplemented with the ballistic protective clothing unit according to the invention.
