Chris Osman, the founder of TAG said, “this is a great order for us and is one of the many reasons I decided to return to TAG, six months ago. I have always enjoyed working directly with end users and procurement offices on opportunities like this. I am very proud that our military cares about procuring Berry Compliant quality products for our troops and an order of this magnitudes proves that.”

Prowler

Prowler Augmentation System

The B-TEMIA / Revision Prowler is a near skin, lower body motorized soldier protection device worn on both legs. It is designed to increase the metabolic energy reserve of soldiers while preventing short and long term musculoskeletal injuries. The Prowler distributes the load across the entire body from the upper body to the lower legs, circumventing the load around the knee joint which is proven to reduce applied stress to the knee by 1/3 under combat load conditions. The Prowler has been tested through the US Army NSRDEC Human Augmentation Program and SOCOM’s TALOS Program.

Hardpoint Technologies – Hardpoint Jungle Operations Vest (SELVA System)

Monday, May 5th, 2014

Hardpoint Jungle Operations Vest

Hardpoint Technologies’ Jungle Operations Vest (SELVA System) is a lightweight vest that incorporates an integrated extraction (HOIST) harness along with an integrated hydration system.

The Jungle Operations Vest is made from Cordura nylon with heavy double and triple stitch patterns designed to stand up to short or prolonged operations in hot, humid, rainy climates. PALS webbing allows for desired equipment placement as the user requires. Snap fasteners at the lower portion of the vest allow for attachment of standard US Military pistol belt assembly.

The integrated HOIST harness assembly operates independently of the vest’s buckle assemblies so that no weight bearing load is placed on the vest itself during insertion/extraction. Extraction TYPE 7 webbing, reinforced with ballistic Kevlar mesh, is built within the interior of the vest, and the leg straps/saddle are secured in a drop pouch located in the rear of the vest for easy accessibility. Multi-Airframe tethers are attached to the TYPE 7 webbing loops and routed and secured on the left or right side with rigger parachute snap fasteners to ensure secured side locations and stability during applied stress.

The integrated hydration system is protected with ballistic Kevlar mesh that is virtually puncture resistant, and the hydration feedhose is accessible from the left or right side.

All webbing and metal hardware meets and/or exceeds US MilSpec standards.

Available in these colors and patterns: Olive Drab, Black, Coyote, MultiCam, and Foliage.
