British Army PLCE Type 90 Pattern Olive Green


Personal Load Carrying Equipment PLCE

History
The PLCE webbing system replaced the Type 58 Pattern webbing, which was Olive drab (OD/OG) in colour and made of canvas material. This system, after having been introduced to the forces in 1960, and considered long outdated by 1980, was still being part of the standard issue equipment of the British Armed Forces during the Falklands War in 1982.

The basic configuration consists of a belt, a shoulder harness and a number of individual pouches. Associated with the PLCE webbing system is a series of other similar load carrying equipment, individual items and rucksacks that are produced of the same materials and feature high interoperability.

85 Pattern

Developments resumed with the progression of the firearms development and introduction of the SA80 family of British small arms. Trials of experimental PLCE webbing and Combat Body Armour (CBA) were conducted with selected units in 1984 and 1985. Being very similar to the first standard issue PLCE webbing system, it used snaps of proprietary design for closure on all pouches.

90 Pattern

Seven years after the Falklands Conflict, the first standard issue PLCE webbing was introduced in 1989, it was designated the Type 90 Pattern webbing and was Olive (OD/OG) in colour.

The PLCE webbing system was also adopted by the Danish Defence Forces (Forsvaret) in the M84 camouflage pattern and by the Defence Forces of Ireland (Óglaigh na hÉireann) in Olive drab.

The newest variant of the PLCE webbing system, of the Type 90 Pattern, has been in production since 1992 and features the Disruptive Pattern Material (DPM) camouflage pattern as being an integral feature of the now partially obsolete Combat Soldier 95 ("Soldier 95") clothing system. The official designation remained unchanged.

After the first introduction in 1989, PLCE in its current MTP form is still Britain's core issue webbing equipment which is compatible with ECBA armour and Mk 6 and 7 helmet, with Osprey issued to non-deployed infantry, leaving Virtus issued to deployed Infantry Commando and Parachute Units.

German engineers at the end of the 19th century managed to create a technology for the production of cotton wool in industrial volumes. Initially, such material was used only in medicine, but later cotton wool began to be widely used in clothing factories. The workers used cotton wool as insulation in the production of outerwear. Russian soldiers fully appreciated wadded jackets for the first time during the conflict in Manchuria in 1904. 10 years later, immediately after the outbreak of the First World War, the production of quilted jackets increased significantly, but as a full-fledged uniform of the tsarist army (wadded jacket and trousers), quilted jackets became only in 1915.








SOVIET ERA OF VATNIKS
After the overthrow of the tsar and the coming to power of the Bolsheviks, the production of quilted jackets dropped somewhat, and only a few years before the start of the Great Patriotic War, the Soviet leadership began to dress the military and civilians in this type of clothing. The red army especially liked the new uniforms. Wadded jackets and trousers did not restrict movement at all, so it was convenient to go into a bayonet attack and move on skis in them.
