Actually, this isn’t the first version of the Releasable Body Armor Vest for the Air Force. Just over a year ago, BAE outfitted Air Force TACPs with vests as well as a pouch suite. This new variant of BAE’s ECLiPSE RBAV is designed specifically for the Guardian Angel Weapon System (USAF PJs) and packs a couple of new features not found in other versions. For example, it includes communications cable routing (referred to as management) into the design meaning no more exposed radio cables. Although a subtle upgrade BAE designers slightly modified the rear flap covering the cable release mechanism which alleviated some binding issues that can occur with previous iterations. Additionally, BAE redesigned the release cable handle for the cutaway to make it easier to get a hold of and deploy. The RBAV-AF also integrates an internal chest pocket for documents and other small items as well as a pouch for a hydration reservoir in the rear. Finally, the cummerbund internal side pockets will accept magazines as well as batteries.
Here is the full information sheet provided by BAE.
Once again, BAE is exhibiting their ECLiPSE brand at SHOT Show. They promise to have a full schedule of events including daily giveaways of pouches as well as t-shirts.
Additionally, BAE is running a contest, seeking designs for a new 2011 T-shirt. Not only does the winner get bragging rights, the prize also includes $250 and $100 credit toward the purchase of ECLiPSE gear. See for yourself in booth #12762.
We just received our free pouch from the BAE ECLiPSE giveaway. By now most everyone who signed up has received theirs. Our choice was the Single .45 Pouch. It is a snug fit with a front velcro closure as well as a more secure tab to make sure it remains closed when you need it to. BAE seems to be rocking and rolling, having picked up numerous contracts for ECLiPSE gear including pouches for the DAGR GPS unit, 7.62 SCAR Magazine, FM-53 pro mask with VPU, and PRC-152 radio. They are also adding MultiCam to their color options.
For all of our readers we would like to say Thank You to BAE!

BAE is generously offering a free pouch to the first 500 Soldier Systems Daily readers who register at their website. The ECLiPSE line was initially developed by BAE as a commercial load carrying solution but was recently adopted by the US Air Force Pararescue community as the Guardian Angel Carrying Kit (shown below).
To get your free pouch visit www.eclipsegear.com. BAE will issue a brief survey after the 29th which will allow you to select your pouch of choice and provide your mailing address.
