The Airman Battle Shirt is now available from Massif, the government supplier in MultiCam (OCP) in addition to Air Force Digital Tigerstripe. This is great news for units looking for the functionality of the ABS, a component of the Airman Battle System – Ground which is normally issued to deploying Airmen. However, the AF recently decided to adopt the Army’s organizational clothing ensemble in order to streamline its transition to OCP for Afghanistan-bound troops meaning that they receive an Army issue of clothing and equipment including FR ACUs and Army Combat Shirt. Based on the ACS, the ABS adds forearm pockets to the design.
Any word on whether the Winter ACS/ABS is coming out in OCP?
No word yet. The Army hasn’t even adopted it in UCP. Also, there is currently no winter ABS.
However, watch here for some really cool news soon from Massif.
Those look like some sweet and expensive pajama bottoms.
FR to boot!
