ADAPTIVX Integrated Waistband System

August 10th, 2018

I stopped by Dynamis Alliance the other day and they were going over some marketing materials for their ADAPTIVX line. Right now, it consists of jeans, but the core of the brand is the IWS (Integrated Waistband System).

Granted, I had seen it in the past, but I was focused primarily on its use for concealed carry of a firearm. But then I started to look at the different inserts they had available and consider other uses. It’s then when I realized that they are redefining concealability. Consider that as long as their has been money, there have been pickpockets. The defense has long been some form of money belt. IWS will do that and more, offering options for concealed carry of a wide variety of items, whether they are valuables, electronics or weapons for self defense. I know you’ll groan, but I have to say it, “This is Adaptive.”

From jogging outdoors during a workout – to operating in environments overseas – IWS is an essential part of your ability to blend in and be prepared.

They are working on new styles and additional modules. I look forward to seeing where this goes.

Unity Tactical FUSION Friday

August 10th, 2018

FUSION, by Unity Tactical, is a system of modular, multi-purpose components that provide end users unparalleled flexibility in mounting accessories to weapon platforms. It offers complete control in attachment of lights, lasers, sights, and other equipment to achieve complete integration, optimal placement, lightest weight, and most economy of space.

This FUSION configuration features the Micro Hub 2.0 and LightWing – Left. The Micro Hub 2.0 features a top hole pattern that matches Steiner DBAL lasers (A2, A3, I2 models). DBAL variants are heavily used by military and law enforcement agencies around the globe, while the Class1 versions are very popular among armed citizens in the US. The factory mount can be removed and replaced with the FUSION Micro Hub 2.0, creating a more compact platform for attaching other accessories, like lights. In this case, a Surefire M600U Scout Light has been affixed to a FUSION LightWing – Left. This configuration will cantilever the light backwards and place the bezel in line with the emitters on the DBAL-I2. The Scout Light’s factory mount has been removed to create a direct mount with the LightWing, and thus a lower profile that is also raised above the bore. This entire configuration is much more compact than using factory mounts and allows for a 12 o’clock placement of a dual pressure switch (like the pictured TAPS Standard) on a shorter rail like this Daniel Defense RIS II.

FUSION components are machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and MILSPEC Type 3 anodized. Designed and made in the US from US materials and good ole’ fashioned American innovation. FUSION is the original and best modular accessory mounting system. Make your gear work for you, not the other way around.

FUSION components are available from Unity Tactical and authorized dealers to build your perfect setup.

The Sky Guys Granted SFOC for Flight Testing of New DX-3 Vanguard

August 9th, 2018

TORONTO, August 8, 2018 (Newswire.com) – The Sky Guys, Canada’s top drone operator, announced this week they have been granted a Special Flight Operations Certificate (SFOC), a permit for commercial Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) flights, for its landmark development project, the DX-3 “Vanguard”. The permit allows The Sky Guys to perform testing that will put the DX-3 through critical elements of integrated flight testing, including performance benchmarking and evaluating Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL), transition, forward-flight, endurance, systems safety, and various aspects of human factors.

“This SFOC is a testament to the industry-leading engineering design and flight operations expertise at The Sky Guys,” noted Jeremy Wang, CTO of The Sky Guys, “Besides its outstanding performance specs, the DX-3 Vanguard comes with safety features normally found in military and commercial aviation. The system is also proudly designed and assembled in Canada, so we have tight control over the IP and production methods that make it unique around the world.”

The SFOC approval comes after months of testing and evaluation in a controlled laboratory environment. The flight testing will be conducted at Toronto Markham Airport CNU8, consisting of Line of Sight (LOS) and simulated Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) only.

“The revolutionary DX-3 ‘Vanguard’ is a giant leap forward in the capabilities of today’s commercially available UAS platforms,” stated Adam Sax, President and CEO of The Sky Guys. “Capable of flying for over 24hrs and 1500km in range, the DX-3 utilizes military-grade technology and sensors to carry out missions in heavy industry and military environments. Its ability to take off and land vertically eliminates the need for runways or launch rails typically required with similar UAS platforms only available to the defense sector.”

“We’ve been working closely with partners in industry, law enforcement, and defense to define test protocols that will establish the DX-3 as the forerunner in NATO Class 1 / DoD Group 2 class UAVs,” concluded Sax.
