I understand that, I've just always wondered how much or how long it would withstand, say if he got blasted in the face. Curious, is all. I really don't know who would win, since both combatants have shown good durability.

The "eyes" on the face-plate were just cameras. ie he didn't use the slits to look through them with his own eyes.'Sabot round' is just a shell for the projectile, Stark's wrist-missile very well could be as powerful as the sabot anti-tank spike used to take out, well tanks, today.
Ah, so he has an entire faceplate beneath his helmet? That makes sense. I was wondering what would've happened in the beginning of the film where he had no protected. Lucky bugger didn't get a single shot in his peepholes.
I think, at least for now, Iron Man can take BB out. His repulsor ray and chest ray should take BB down and he can withstand several slugs to the armor. I mean, if the army can destroy Decepticons, so can Iron Man easily.
