There is no question that the seg is a superior piece of body armour,
As protection! It would seem it has issues in some minds due to the
Practicality of repairs in the field and expense!
I have yet to hear a convincing argument as to its real deficiencies
Though!
As time moved on the army evolved! However, whether it ended as a superior
Force may be debated! It certainly met with disastrous defeats
in the later period from which it was very hard pushed to recover from,
If it ever did, in comparison to the earlier army! But that can also be accounted
for by the attitudes of the citizens towards service as much as to any possible deficiencies
In tactics! They certainly cannot put the blame on poor equipment!
But there are many, more expert than I am who will have
Different opinions!
