History

SnigelDesign delivered 2,000 pieces Battle Vest 08

The system was evaluated and tested by including the international force in Afghanistan.

SnigelDesign was down on the spot two times to both educate the users of the product, but also to take in the views and criticism of how the system worked. In order to evaluate different solutions and materials differed vests tested from each other without causing the user unaware of the differences, all to get as accurate a picture as possible of how it worked.

With the comments received and to evaluate how they use the vests had been torn, SnigelDesign could then develop specifications for the new combat vest system that would be called the Battle Vest-12.

SnigelDesign was asked to specify the product and all accessories such as pockets mm.
After a time specified, created all the designs, got up right material that met all the requirements for flame resistance, signature suppression, durability etc. Several samples were produced for approval by FMV , a really good combat vest system was finally developed for the Swedish Armed Forces!

A contract expired at 35000-70000 systems,
A Swedish company won, and production started in 2013.
