Боевой кит на ССТ
CCT-шник выложил свой кит, то в чем он там.
I'm currently deployed as a SOF JTAC and I thought I'd share what I'm rocking out here.
Plate carrier:
LBT 6094A with plates and backers from SPEAR. I added the HSGI shoulder pads for added comfort over top of the LBT ones. In the front pouch is a Mayflower 3 mag kangaroo pouch and Spartan Blades CQB tool. Directly behind that I keep a protractor, some danger close cheat sheet cards and a notepad. Running 2 152's in the cummerbund radio pouch with FM whip antenna's routed to the back. I can get decent comms on UHF and VHF with aircraft if I have to, but in my AO FM freqs work the best. On the right side of the carrier I've got a admin pouch holding extra boom mics, AA/AAA/123 batteries, IR skeet, Slip 2000EWL and a helmet counterweight. Left side is my VSLIM (IR pointer for marking tgts at night) and 2 smokes in high ground gear pouches. CAT tourniquets rubber banded to the molle in front of my radios. On the back is the mayflower back panel. Holds my PVS15's, KYK-13, SMP2000 beacon and IR skeet in the top and blow out kit on the bottom tearoff panel. Inside the hydration carrier portion I keep my full motion video reciever, which displayes to an eye piece routed through my shoulder strap. On the bottom rear of the carrier I also have a 152 multi-band antenna rubber banded. In the event my routed antennas fail I have a backup that I can attach directly to the radio. Also have an American flag folded and tucked in the front plate pocket, 'cuz...you know...'MERICA.
I toyed around with the Crye JPC and BFG LMAC but I keep coming back to this PC. For what I use it for its just about perfect.
Radio pack:
Eagle yote stuffed with a 117G, SAT antenna, extra mags and smoke, and alot of water. This usually gets left in the truck when we dismount. If we're planning on making a long movement however I'll throw it on. I try to keep from doing it because it ends up just being an extra radio that I never use. For extended day ops I use an eberlestock X2. That pack is awesome and holds everything I need plus the shit I think I'll need but end up never touching.
Helmet:
ops-core lid, pretty bare. strobe on the back, glint patch on the top. The MPL switch light is a white/red and old as hell. I'll probably swap it out for a white/IR that I have lying around. I use the smith boogie goggles if I need goggle eye pro (usually only for MFF) but the clips for the bungee straps are on there and never get taken off. If you have the rail systems and wear goggles under your NVGs, GET THESE GOGGLES NOW. They are the only goggles that I have ever used under nods that were comfortable and didn't fog in .35 seconds.
Weapons:
MK17 w/ 13in barrel. Run it pretty slick with only a LA-5 wired to a pressure switch on the vert grip. Optic is a 1-6x elcan. It gets run suppressed 99% of the time. To be completely honest I really dislike the SCAR platform. I wish SOCOM would have gone with a 7.62 AR platform like the LMT MRP rather than this. Regardless, its still a 7.62 and its superior to 5.56 at the normal engagement distances in Afghanistan.
MK18 is run suppressed majority of the time. I know that a suppressed shorty isn't the greatest but with how little I actually shoot at people in a TIC it's not the biggest issue. I've also never really had any issues with it even at high round counts suppressed. Drown it in EWL and it keeps chugging along. Issued eotech(hate it), LA-5, and the insight white/IR weapon light. Stippled pmags are all I run in this sucker.
MK20 w/ Nightforce 3.5-15 with Horus H57. I wish it had a little more power optic wise, but it gets the job done. This gets run suppressed 100% of the time. Its a surefire suppressor and the thing is solid. Often times I get put out on a dismount team to set up an OP and provide overwatch. This thing gets taken along for that and I hope one day I can log a kill with it. It would up my street cred for sure around the teams haha.
