A shock absorbing apparatus that includes a baseplate adapted to be mounted on a platform, a flexure member that operably engages with the baseplate, and a mounting plate that operably engages with the flexure member. The mounting plate is free from direct engagement with the baseplate and is moveable between a neutral position and a translated position with respect to the baseplate. The mounting plate is also adapted to hold a device. The flexure member is adapted to absorb shock forces caused by a ballistic shock event or a projectile motion event in proximity to or applied on the platform.
