This is our Law Enforcement Scalable Ballistic Protective Vest System
The Tactical Python™

Designed and manufactured to meet and exceed the demands of SOF, NSW, MARSOC and AFSOS, this system incorporates all of the features with far less a weight penalty than that of the OTV or IOTV systems. 

The Tactical Python™ is the answer to the call for an all-in-one system that is light in weight and yet protective.

Extensive input from operators combined with manufacturing insight permitted unparalleled development of this vest.

 This system performs all of the following functions:

  • Tactical Body Armor Vest (TBAV)
  • Modular Body Vest (MBAV)
  • Releasable Body Vest (RBAV)
  • Enhanced Concealable Military Protective Vest (ECMPV)
  • Mission Scalable Protective Vest (MSPV)
  • Abbreviated Rifle Plate Carrier (ARPC)
  • Maritime Releasable Body Armor Vest (MRBAV)

The system has tremendous potential for domestic law enforcement because of the cross-over of ballistic-cuts. You can get a concealable vest and a Tactical Python™ Carrier that takes your panels. Or you can order ours (see below)

Mission-Scalable for whatever operational parameters should arise! Add or subtract features depending on the needs of the operator. The PALS / MOLLE permits attachment of pouches and weapon retention systems.

The system accepts supplemental armor:
  • Ballistic Collar
  • Ballistic Throat
  • Ballistic Shoulders
  • Ballistic Biceps
  • Ballistic Groin
  • Ballistic Lower Back
  • Ballistic Gap (Fits into Cummerbund)
  • Rifle Protective Plates
  • Side Protective Plates
  • Bicep Protective Plates
  • Vest Rapid Release System

Because of ballistic front and back panel sizing and shape, the Tactical Python™ fits like concealable body armor. When worn without supplemental attachments, it presents a very low profile and hides very well under light jackets or heavy shirts. Ideal for Low-Viz operations where a tactical vest would drew unneeded and unnecessary attention.


Rifle-Protection:


Internal Rifle Plate Suspension System supports the appropriate-sized SAPI Plates. Because of this system's design, printing of the contained plates is at a minimum. If this system were to be worn as a Low Visibility Body Armor Vest (LBAV), unlike other systems, the Tactical Python™ cummerbund supports the plate's weight on the waist and not on the shoulders. This results in less fatigue with less degradation of the operator's skill-set. 

In addition, the cummerbund accepts Side-SAPI Plate Pockets that are encapsulated by it. This fully supports the pockets and the weight of the plates. No flapping around like external MOLLE (PALS) mounted pockets.

The Ballistics-Cut:


The vest is designed around the Protective Products Ent. (PPE) Python-cut concealable ballistic panels. One of the most popular vest-cuts with police officers, the Python-cut provides for a more complete coverage of the center core of the body than does the CIRAS/BALCS/SPEARS-cut.
Because of this, the Tactical Python™ fits better, permits tremendous ease of movement, is lighter overall and allows for a wider range of ballistic protection levels.

The Carrier:


Constructed of 1000 Denier Ballistic Nylon and assembled with MIL-Spec thread throughout. MIL-Spec Velcro® & MIL-Spec PALS webbing. The liner is high-strength mesh for aeration & rapid draining. For those who prefer a padded liner we offer that option too.

Maritime Releasable Body Armor Vest:

With the addition of our Releasable Cummerbund option and our Neutral-Buoyant Salt Water ballistics, the Tactical Python™ is lighter overall and abbreviated just enough to facilitate combat swimming, ship-assault and shipboard S&C (Search & Contain) operations.
The vest, when so equipped adds NO weight to the operator when 'wet'. Drop-weights and B.C. are easily attachable and available through us.

Plug-n-Play Modules:

Designed to FAST-Attach to the Tactical Python™ back panel carrier and permits specific Mission-Modules (MIMS) to be attached. The cable-release system assures rapid disengagement from the module if combative events should evolve.
