Shoulder Protection Case for ballistic inserts for Cuirass QRS

You never know where an enemy bullet or shrapnel might come from, so it’s best to ensure maximum protection in advance. The M-TAC brand has developed shoulder protection with inserts for the M-TAC Cuirass QRS plate carriers, significantly increasing the protected area of a soldier's body. The product is a compact shoulder module that provides fragment protection for the bicep, shoulder joint, and arteries. It is recommended to mount this protective element onto the M-Tac ballistic gorget with inserts for Cuirass QRS or the shoulder platform of the M-Tac Cuirass QRS plate carrier. The shoulder protection attaches to the shoulder section of the plate carrier using Velcro. A plastic D-ring frame with a locking mechanism serves as a connecting element and allows for quick removal of the shoulder system if needed. Particular attention was paid to the anatomical design. The module allows for adjustable height attachment via a vertical Velcro strap. It also adjusts to the arm circumference and is secured with a horizontal strap. Engineers put a strong emphasis on preserving the user's mobility. This design does not interfere with other gear and provides ample freedom of movement. Shoulder protection ballistic inserts, in combination with the M-Tac Cuirass QRS plate carrier and M-Tac ballistic gorget, forms a complete modern soldier protection system based on a plate carrier.

Creating the MULTICAM pattern took over eight years of expeditions, scientific research, data analysis, and practical field tests. It was designed to serve as a universal camouflage solution for the American army. The need for a new camouflage became evident after Operation Desert Storm in Iraq. At the time, the camouflage patterns in use, such as Woodland for forest terrain and Tri-Color Desert for desert operations, failed to provide adequate concealment for soldiers. Each operation still required specialized camouflage, complicating supply logistics and decreasing soldier safety. Even after introducing a new universal digital camouflage (Digital) during operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, the situation did not significantly improve. It became clear that a single universal pattern was necessary, one that would allow a soldier to blend into any terrain and at any distance from an observer. The goal was to create camouflage that worked equally well against various backgrounds, including vegetation, desert, rocky terrain, urban buildings, and ruins, under different lighting conditions and in any climate throughout the year. How does this camouflage work? It seemed almost impossible to achieve such a versatile pattern. However, the designers utilized the limitations of human vision and the structure of our eyes to their advantage. In theory, for camouflage to be effective at long distances, it should consist of large, blurred spots. At closer ranges, especially against backgrounds of foliage and vegetation where the human eye detects small objects more clearly, the pattern should incorporate small, rounded elements of the dominant background. The developers found that the predominant backgrounds across most regions of the globe share similar gradients of green and brown. An important revelation was that black, which is commonly used in camouflage patterns worldwide, does not actually appear in nature. By integrating their findings and conducting computer simulations that layered over a thousand images, the developers successfully created the MULTICAM pattern. Near Infrared (NIR) technology is utilized by the US Department of Defense to minimize detection by NIR electro-optical sensors. These sensors do not detect infrared radiation. NIR uniforms are made from a special fabric that helps soldiers maintain a temperature similar to that of the surrounding landscape, making them harder to spot. Additionally, NIR technology reduces light reflection, making the uniforms less visible in low-light conditions.
