A full-sized carrier like the Testudo is ideal for most missions at hand, but other times, special mission requirements force you to have a carrier like the Testudo Lite Gen 1 plate carrier from Armored Republic that is not only tough as nails but also a nimble and low-profile for vehicle-based and CQB operations. The Testudo Lite Gen 1 has been jump-tested by US Special Operations personnel, where it demonstrated its ability to provide high mobility without sacrificing protection and comfort for the wearer. It accepts all 10” x 12” plates and is laser-cut from laminated Nylon. The Hypalon® shoulder straps and pull tabs, meanwhile, are low profile and secure. Cut from the same laminated Nylon, the cummerbund gives you a customized fit and can also accommodate our padded side plate pouches. Finally, both the plate carrier and cummerbund feature generous PALS webbing for all MOLLE-compatible pouches and accessories - giving you extra space to let you keep extra magazines, a medical kit, or a general access pouch close at hand.
