SPC – SOLDIER PLATE CARRIER
The SPCS – Soldier Plate Carrier System is the U.S. Army Plate Carrier System currently issued to all combat troops in Afghanistan (over 60,000 units). Following a lengthy review, field evaluations and analysis, the U.S. Army chose the KDH brand model Magnum TAC-1 system over all other competitor designs as a result of the following key factors: (1) weight and comfort, (2) ballistic performance, and (3) delivery schedule. The Magnum TAC-1 was the lightest of the plate carriers studied by the U.S. Army and it has the highest ballistic performance as well. This plate carrier/vest provides the soldier with a lightweight option to the standard issue IOTV vest and is designed to meet the requirements of troops working in high-altitude and rugged terrain. The system balances the fine line between coverage and mobility.
