Reversible Tactical Modular Assault Panel
Monday, September 13th, 2010The whole idea behind this product is unique. Since the US Army has adopted MultiCam for use in Afghanistan, troops will find themselves requiring equipment in more than one pattern. So, CPGear designed a reversible, modular chest rig that is UCP on one side for garrison use and MultiCam on the other for combat use.
As you can see, the rig comes with anchor points that attach to the Improved Outer Tactical Vest’s (IOTV)PALS grid. This facilitates rapid donning and doffing. Additionally, the RTMAP is designed to integrate with IOTV’s cutaway mechanism without interfering.
An added bonus to having PALS on both sides of the rig is that pouches can be attached on the inside as well. Take for instance this radio pouch. Not only does attaching it to the inside give you more real estate for other items but it also protects the radio from some of the knocks and dings it could otherwise be subjected to.
If you’ll be attending the Infantry Warfighter Conference this week at Ft Benning, Georgia be sure to stop by CPGear’s booth # 1109.

Agilite Tactical Gear Goes International
Sunday, August 15th, 2010
Agilite, an Israeli-American producer of tactical gear, has launched their new website and formally entered the international. Sales of their products began in Israel in early 2010 and many Israel Defense Forces troopers have already proven Agilite vests in real-world conflict scenarios. Now those same vests are available in American camouflage patterns, including MultiCam pattern from Crye Precision which was recently adopted as the US Army’s OEF Camouflage Pattern.
“The last few years combat in both Iraq and Afghanistan has bred an unprecedented need for tactical gear designed specifically for Middle Eastern combat. Having decades of experience in counter-terrorism ops and tactical design teams inside each of its elite units, Israel has become a world leader in tactical gear design,†says Agilite Founder Elie Isaacson, a former IDF Paratrooper and English-language spokesman for the Israeli Army.
Prior to Agilite’s launch, however, such Israeli-designed vests had never been adapted for a global market nor produced in American patterns. “It’s a great feeling to be able to offer our products internationally. Seeing Israeli vests in US Camo patterns sums up what we are all about†says Steve Hoodjer, Agilite’s co-founder and a former sergeant in the US Army National Guard with two Middle Eastern deployments to his credit. The two founders met in 2005 at Israel’s prestigious Institute for Counter-Terrorism.
Agilite’s product range includes their signature product, The Tactical Hi-Vest, an all-in-one tactical load bearing system that incorporates a detachable modular assault pack. The modular assault pack eliminates the need for soldiers to procure an extra assault pack or butt pack for mission essential items, yet allows for removal when operating from a vehicle or when carrying a rucksack on longer missions. The Tactical Hi-Vest fits “high and tight†on the body allowing for a more comfortable weight distribution than standard issue vests. All products are made in Israel from a combination of American and Israeli materials.
