FirstSpear

Available in SAPI or MBAV Cut, the Strandhögg™ gets its name from an Old Norse Viking term for a lightning raid. Strandhögg™ was one of the first formalized battle tactics to use covert infiltrators in advance of an actual raiding operation. Strandhögg™ was a tactical game changer in its time, just like the technological advances FirstSpear^® is bringing forward in this line of plate carriers.

A full-featured armor platform, The Strandhögg™ can be worn with or without a soft armor panel, depending upon ballistic requirements, threat conditions and the type of plate utilized. Maximizing the ultra lightweight 6/12™ platform and rapid closure systems provided by The Tubes®, the MBAV and SAPI Cut Strandhögg can be rapidly donned or doffed and capable of accepting the integrated inflatable floatation cummerbund from the Maritime 6/12™ Plate Carrier System. Using a streamlined fit throughout, along with state of the art materials and production technology, the Strandhögg™ Plate Carrier is easily tailored for comfort, ventilation and fit.

Purpose built for amphibious-user roles, the Amphibian™ supports survival and tactical requirements in riverine, coastal, and open water operations. The Amphibian™ integrates a manually inflatable flotation cummerbund offering up to 80 lbs of lift at the surface in sea water and up to 45 lbs of lift at 33' in sea water. Orally inflated Buoyancy compensators offer 5 lbs. of lift in the front and 5 lbs. in the back. The ultra lightweight 6/12™ platform has been incorporated to keep weight to an absolute minimum and rapid release Tubes^® technology allows the entire system to be doffed in seconds during an emergency. Kit includes 2'' Belly Band and Land Cummerbund.
