AttackPAK Integrated Load Carriage System (ILCS)

Tuesday, January 23rd, 2018

AttackPAK has been issued 2 patents for their Integrated Load Carriage System (ILCS). The system is designed to unburden the soldier by integrating armor, fighting, and sustainment loads into one-system, with a universal chassis. The design is based on an independent waist belt and frame for optimum load distribution, which also doesn’t restrict range of motion or agility.

This is a simple and robust design that has no moving parts to break. It can be worn connected or disconnected, inside of body armor, over body armor, or without body armor, to adapt to every user. The AttackPAK is easy to ditch in an emergency and can be donned without assistance.

The frame and belt provide an ergonomic fit for each user. Three different model belts are available to carry more or less weight. The AttackPAK system can utilize suspenders to transfer weight between the hips and shoulders to reduce fatigue. The packs are modular and scalable to adapt to changing missions.

The AttackPAK is a complete solution, designed from the ground up, to eliminate redundancy and the “Christmas tree” effect. The resulting system eliminates 2+ pounds from currently fielded equipment.

Lessons learned, Afghanistan and Iraq:
Soldiers need body armor or plate carriers that more comfortably facilitates a heavy rucksack.

In 2016 the US Soldier Enhancement Program purchased 60 demonstration units for testing and evaluation. This purchase followed AttackPAK’s response to SPD9 in 2011.

PAK has been designing, building, and repairing backpacks for over 30 years. His years of Mountain Rescue and high-altitude ski patroller service gave him the real-world testing opportunities. His lifelong friend retired from NSWDG after 20 years and complained about constant back pain from carrying heavy equipment with ineffective gear. That friend’s Tier 1 military expertise, combined with mountaineering pack comfort, helped create the AttackPAK, a new system designed to eliminate the “suck” and provide greater soldier safety.

The AttackPAK design is beneficial for backcountry hikers, mountaineers, rescuer workers, as well as military, law enforcement, and wildland firefighters. The products can be seen at attackpak.com.

CORDURA Brand and Crye Precision Bring Lightweight Comfort to Latest Mil-Spec Uniforms

Monday, January 22nd, 2018

New CORDURA® x Meet the Maker series video to highlight Crye’s state-of-the art G4 uniform

WICHITA, KS – January 22, 2018 – INVISTA’s CORDURA® brand and Crye Precision have collaborated to create a new generation of military uniform fabric technology powered by the long-lasting durability of CORDURA® fabric combined with lightweight comfort and added mobility. Made from Crye Precision’s proprietary VTXTM Ripstop material constructed with stretch CORDURA® NYCO fabric technology, the latest G4 Uniform represents the next generation of combat apparel. It will be featured in the latest installment of the CORDURA® brand’s ‘Meet the Maker’ series, which highlights the two brands’ longstanding collaboration.

E9501C79-93E7-4A78-A4A6-C9ED88A4BC2B

“We are excited to once again be working with Crye Precision on the cutting-edge of military fabric technology,” said Cindy McNaull, global CORDURA® brand and marketing director. “The goal of our Meet the Maker series is to highlight the power of collaborative problem solving with our brand customers, and celebrate our shared values. This latest installment with Crye is a testament to passionate innovation and our long-term durable bond.”

The G4 Uniform features a slim-cut design for reduced bulk and enhanced wearer comfort under body armor. INVISTA T420HT patent-pending high tenacity fiber technology helps optimize the pants and sleeves for lightweight strength, and zippered shoulder pockets leave room for essential gear.

“From uniform fabrics to heavy duty plate carriers to backpack fabrics, CORDURA® brand is the gold standard for nearly our entire line,” said Gregg Thompson, co-founder of Crye Precision. “We’ve been working with CORDURA® fabric since our very first G1 uniform, and we continued to use it in our AC uniform and G3 uniform after that,” added Johanna Bloomfield, lead designer at Crye Precision. “For G4, we wanted to create a fabric that was lighter and stronger than our current fabric.”

The G4 uniform’s VTXTM Ripstop fabric construction offers multiple benefits when compared to standard 50/50 NYCO Mil-Spec material. Driven by a 17% lighter weight and 4x more breathable material, its comfort properties are key for consumers who are often wearing uniforms for long and demanding periods of time. In the field, its practical technologies include 3x higher tear strength and 60% faster drying fabric.

“The most rewarding part of the job is knowing that the products you’re designing are being used in the real world by end-users that are rappelling, climbing over walls and fast-roping out of helicopters,” said Brad Thomas, retired special forces and product manager at Crye Precision. “Our new G4 uniform and fabric is so reliable, the servicemen don’t have to think about it. And I don’t think we would have had the success that we have had without CORDURA® fabric.”

To experience the story behind the collection, view the new CORDURA® + Crye ‘Meet the Maker’ video here. Or stop by the Crye Precision booth #32403 at SHOT Show in Las Vegas, January 23-26, 2018. The uniform will also be on display at Outdoor Retailer + Snow Show in Denver, January 25, 2018 at the CORDURA® brand booth #54037-UL.

Revision Adds New Helmet To Caiman Family: The Batlskin Caiman Bump Helmet System

Monday, January 22nd, 2018

Essex Junction, Vermont (January 22, 2018) – Revision Military, a world leader in head protection solutions, unveils a new addition to the Batlskin Caiman™ Helmet family: The Caiman Bump Helmet System. This new, distinct Caiman Bump helmet is built on an advanced reinforced polymer shell and is designed for the rigors of maritime and mobile maneuvers. The helmet system provides blunt impact protection that meets advanced combat helmet (ACH) standards. Optimized for a variety of operators, particularly global Coast Guard, Search and Rescue, Law Enforcement and National Guard forces, this skeletonized helmet system places a premium on scalability and integration, giving operators a more stripped-down base for affixing headborne equipment. The Batlskin Caiman Bump Helmet will be available for purchase by the end of Q1, 2018.

?“With the addition of the Caiman Bump Helmet System, this family of head protection solutions continues to rapidly mature,” said Jonathan Blanshay, CEO, Revision Military. “Revision has now unveiled a trifecta of versatile, lightweight, and scalable solutions that are ideal for fast-moving missions. Revision’s Caiman solutions put the power in the hands of the user, letting the operator dictate their protection level, integration, fit, and weight in accordance with the mission ahead. This is the demand we heard from operators as we developed the Caiman line, and we will continue to address the needs of a wide spectrum of operational demands and mission profiles with this groundbreaking family of head protection solutions.”

The skeletonization of all system components in the Caiman Helmet Systems has significantly reduced the overall weight compared to currently fielded helmet systems, emphasizing scalability and mission-specific accessories. Like Revision’s other Caiman helmets, the Caiman Bump comes in five sizes, ensuring users are wearing the lightest, most comfortable, and most stable helmet possible. Moreover, Caiman helmets are expressly designed to incorporate electronics, communications headsets, and other specialized equipment needs—particularly, Revision’s recently introduced, next-generation circumaural headset, the SenSys ComCentr2™ Tactical Headset System.

The Caiman Helmet family includes the Caiman Ballistic Helmet and the Caiman Hybrid Helmet with an optional Applique that ballistically-enables the Hybrid shell.  Additional accessories include two visor variants, one that attaches directly into the Wilcox® L4 Shroud and one that works in tandem with front mounted equipment and two mandible variants, one bump and one ballistic, as well as a streamlined rail system, an innovative liner and suspension system, and helmet covers.
