Blue Force Gear® will exhibit at the 2011 AUSA Annual Meeting & Exposition at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. from October 10th through the 12th. Make sure you check out their innovative approach to lightening the soldier’s load, the much talked about Project Helium Whisper™. Additionally, they will display with weapon slings recently adopted by USAF Security Forces and the US Marine Corps M27 IAR program. Project Helium Whisper™ was previewed a few months back at the Warrior Expo East show and created quite a buzz in the super weight-conscious Special Operations community. To see this Patent Pending new MOLLE compatible system visit them in Booth 8325.

I read somewhere that a TenSpeed Pouch with the Helium Whisper material, weights the same than a couple MALICE clips.
2 large MALICE clips weigh 28 grams
Helium Whisper variant single M4 magazine pouch weighs 30 grams.
Looks like they’re using die-cut hypalon (or similar) for the backing and attachment. That’s pretty damned cool!!!
