History


The USMC Chest Rig is a Marine Corps specific modified version of the U.S.
Army's Tactical Assault Panel

The Tactical Assault Panel (TAP) replaces the Fighting Load Carrier (FLC Vest) to allow for quick-release of equipment in emergency situations. TAP is compatible with the quick release system of the improved outer tactical vest (IOTV) and Soldier Plate Carrier System (SPCS). TAP can also be worn like a Ranger Assault Carrying Kit (RACK) in stand-alone mode, using the external webbing harness.

MARCORSYSCOM is currently fielding the Modular Tactical Vest (MTV) and the Scalable Plate Carrier (SPC) to allow Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) Commanders the latitude to tailor Armor Protection Levels (APL) to satisfy their mission requirements.

The adoption of this concept has resulted in the need to transfer the assault load between body armor systems, which is a cumbersome and time consuming process.

The USMC Chest Rig allows Marines to rapidly transition fighting loads between the SPC, MTV, or the Full Spectrum Battle Equipment (FSBE). The Chest Rig is compatible with the quick release system of the MTV and FSBE vest, eliminating interference with the quick release function.
