Lightweight Assault Pack, Jumpable

Friday, May 13th, 2011

Tyr Tactical released their new Jumpable Lightweight Assault Pack earlier today. Designed specifically for airborne operations, the pack integrates several features not found in normal packs. For example, it accepts an HPT Lowering Line via two foldaway tabs at the top of the pack. Also straps are reinforced around the inside of the pack in one continuous piece for added strength and durability and are accessible at the top of each side of the pack in order to utilize D Ring attaching straps. When not in use, the straps can be easily tucked away and stored in the attached strap pouches. Additionally, the main compartment utilizes PV500 along the entire gusset of the bag and is reinforced with 2” webbing to add additional strength.

Tyr provides plenty of pouches to compartmentalize gear. The inside compartment features two internal mesh pockets and there are also two pockets on the front of the pack. Additional external pockets on each side of the pack include internal mesh pockets to keep smaller items organized. Ample PALS real estate is provided to facilitate additional pouches. It also features a pocket built to fit a 100oz hydration bladder as well as the pack’s internal frame.

Manufactured from PV500, the Lightweight Assault Pack, Jumpable boasts a 3,197 cu in capacity.

Reversible Rainsuit from Dakota Outerwear

Thursday, May 5th, 2011

As I walked through the Warrior Expo West yesterday I saw an interesting item out of the corner of my eye. Seeing how the USAF just adopted OCP (MultiCam) for Airmen bound for Afghanistan I found this rain jacket to look pretty handy. Originally developed for use when we still issued separate woodland and desert patterns, it reverses for compatibility with either environment but the design went out of favor as the Air Force adopted the Digital Tiger Stripe Pattern. Now that the Air Force once again has two patterns, Dakota Outerwear thought it was time to reintroduce the concept. We agree.

The hood stows in the collar and pockets are accessible no matter which pattern is exposed.

Dakota Outerwear is available for agency/unit purchase from www.adsinc.com/dakota-outerwear.

SORD USA Announces A-TACS Clothing

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

SORD USA has just announced that they are now offering their Smock in A-TACS camouflage (NYCO) as well as MultiCam (NYCO) and Tan (100% ripstop Cotton). We have chosen to include a photo in Tan because the A-TACS pattern works so well it masks some of the smocks features.

Redback One chief instructor Jason Falla has been wearing the SORD smock for a few months now and everyone who has seen it has been asking where they can get one. SORD USA heard their pleas and has answered them.

The smock features ELEVEN pockets (five around the waist, four on the chest and two on each bicep). Rather than the wire usually found in the brim of the hood, SORD is using a tube to shape it. The smock also integrates pit zips as well as 1000D Cordura elbows as well as tie down points for gloves at the cuffs. When buttons are used, they are of the slotted variety.

Four chest pockets consist of two large pockets with button closure and two side zip opening pouches for easy access while wearing body armor or chest rigs with a single zippered opening on the left chest allowing access to garments underneath. The waist features five pockets with the center rear pocket being a larger poacher-style pocket.

Generous bicep pockets consist of a large zipper opening main pouch, with a smaller top opening pocket for range cards, etc. The outer face of the bicep pockets features a large 4” x 4” Velcro panel for attaching IFF, ANFs, etc. SORD has also included a cover spare panel of matching material for instances where the IFF panel is not needed.

Additionally, they will have the Field Uniform Jackets and Pants in A-TACS within the week. They are also currently updating their website with caps in 3 versions; SORD logo, Velcro patch and US flag variants. Finally, check out the US flag on A-TACS background.
