What is a plate carrier?

A plate carrier is a tactical vest with pockets (plate pockets) for hard ceramic or steel plates. Unlike soft bulletproof vests, plate carriers provide rifle round protection but are heavier and more visible. They are primarily used by military, police special units (AKS, PET), and tactical teams.

Our plate carriers — features

  • MOLLE/PALS system — modular customization with accessories
  • Quick release — rapid removal in emergencies
  • Compatible with SAPI/ESAPI plates — standard NATO format
  • Adjustable fit — adapts over uniform and gear
  • Side and neck pockets — option for full 360° protection

Trauma plates sold separately

Plate carriers are delivered without plates. See our trauma plates for NIJ Level III and IV certified plates in ceramic and polyethylene.

Who is it for?

Military personnel, police task forces, private military contractors (PMC), hunters, and shooters in need of rifle round protection.
