CAMOCLAD Concealment Systems manufactures solutions to effectively conceal a wide variety of military and tactical weapons and hardware from Tanks, Jeeps, Transport Vehicles, Watercraft, Command and Control Modules to Firearms, Spotting Scopes and everything in between. CAMOCLAD is waterproof, weather proof, scratch resistant and designed to perform in temperatures ranging from -65 to +225 degrees. These kits have been specially developed and are offered on a super matte vinyl substrate to minimize sheen and flare in harsh outdoor lighting conditions. Additionally, Both A-TACS Camo patterns have been specially developed and scaled appropriately to fit larger scale vehicles with a repeat size more than double most other patterns on the market. This minimizes the “step and repeat” effect common with large scale pattern applications.
UK-based Warrior Assault Systems has introduced their DCS (Dynamic Combat System) in A-TACS FG Camo. Warrior Assault Systems claims that the design was developed with “direct input from active S.F. Operators” and is “suitable for both Special Forces requirements, and PSD Operations”. Fair enough. The DCS accommodates large plates front and back and has the ability to carry either “6 x 6? or “6 x 8? side plates. It is also designed to accept NEXUS NIJ Level 3a Front and Back. Additionally, there is room for ICW side plates.
The shoulders are fully adjustable and have an Emergency Release on one side which frees the left hand side shoulder section and allows the wearer to remove the vest without having to remove his helmet. The side sections of the DCS are fully adjustable for size and can be adjusted in under 15 seconds. 3D Spacer Mesh lining is used for comfort and allows body heat to move away from the bodies surface while assisting in air flow to provide cooling.
The DCS was developed to be worn in tandem with their Warrior Frag Belt and comes standard with 5 x Open Mag pouches for 5.56mm Mags as well as 2 x Small Utility / Medic Pouch.
