Authentic British Army Osprey Mk IV body armour vest in MTP (Multi-Terrain Pattern), issued and used during operations in Afghanistan. This is a full-coverage modular system built for durability, load-bearing, and expanded protection, featuring extensive MOLLE/PALS webbing across the front, sides, and rear - complete with assault ancillaries.
This example includes front and rear rigid insert assemblies, which are fully sealed within their own covers and sit inside the vest’s internal pockets. These inserts give the vest its substantial weight and structure while remaining removable from the carrier. Also included are shoulder covers and both large and small collar attachments, allowing for adjustable upper-body coverage depending on configuration.
Important:
No soft armor panels are included in the vest, collar, or shoulder components
Insert assemblies are sealed units (not user-serviceable) but are removable from the vest
Sold as surplus equipment, not guaranteed for ballistic protection
