Improved Outer Tactical Vest - VERY Heavy. Maunfactured by Point Blank Body Armour.The Improved Outer Tactical Vest, or IOTV, is a replacement to the older Interceptor body armor fielded by the United States Army. It is compatible with the Deltoid Axillary protection system, E-SAPI (Enhanced Small Arms Protective Insert) and Side SAPI plates, as well as the interceptor body armor's groin protector. The old IOTV was considered insufficient which led to the new IOTV and also the Modular Tactical Vest (MTV) which proved very popular with the majority of the Marine Corps. The IOTV is designed to take the weight of the vest off the shoulders and move it to the lower torso. The vest is also equipped with a mesh inner cover that is designed to improve airflow inside of the armor. There is also a cushioning pad in the lower back area of the vest, which might mitigate back injuries due to impact or blunt force trauma. It also features a grid of PALS webbing on the front, back, and sides for the attachment of modular pouches and accessories.
