I've been googling some pictures of armor(such as breastplates) and they don't look flexible at all. They all look like one piece. Am I missing something?

Are there some good pictures of historical or replica armor that someone could link me too?

While its just a guess, I would assume mid rib is about midway down the ribcage given the term.
