USIA has a bag specifically for the USAF PJ community, designed with their direct inputting.
It wouldn’t be much good if all of the contents got wet so it integrates a YKK waterproof zipper making it divable to 130 ft. It has also been certified for airborne operations by the USAF.
The bag is slightly larger than the Special Operations Forces Aidman’s Bag. USIA integrated the O2 system into the pack and added a little more room than is in their 2400 sq in SOFA Aidman’s Pack.
The Trace Systems Rope Bag is often called the ‘Magic Rope Bag’ because it makes a rope disappear into the bag so quickly. There are many rope bags on the market with integrated skirts out there but they are all pretty big. This bag is made from MultiCam 70D nylon along with a solid colored skirt.
There is also a side pocket for a rope protection sleeve.
Although it is not yet on the site as a stand alone product, it can be specified as a component of the Trace lots or purchased alone.

Marz Tactical has introduced a headrest harness for their Multi-Mode IFAK, unveiled last year here at SOMA. It allows you to mount the rear of a headrest where it is easily accessible. The buckle and strapping system keeps it secure yet allows deployment in an instant.
Marz has also made a change to the interior of the Multi-Mode IFAK. Based on user feedback, the horizontal elastic strap has been replaced with a flat pocket.
With the curtailing of live tissue training for the US military, SOMA was wall-to-wall manikins. But for me, one stuck out. North American Rescue has developed a full line of Combat Trauma Simulators that replicate typical injuries experienced on the modern battlefield. Developed by a former Combat Trauma Surgeon, the line consists of five hyper-realistic manikins that simulate different wounding patterns, ranging from facial trauma to amputation. Each manikin is anatomically correct, featuring a five liter blood reservoir in the chest for bleeding. The internal skeleton is supported by airplane cable and an untethered remote control system regulates simulated breathing and other signs of life. Each manikin has Dragon Skin (not the armor system) a rugged silicone based material that also demonstrates realistic tactile response. The manikins are water resistant, making difficult training situations like inclement weather possible. Training capabilities include tourniquet application, wound packing, burn treatments and bowel evisceration.
