The Airborne Tactical Assault Panel (A-TAP) is the modern evolution of the FLC (Fighting Load Carrier) and TAP Panel systems, designed specifically to meet the needs of airborne troops, ground forces operating with heavy sustainment loads.
Originally issued to U.S. Army paratroopers, the A-TAP is a modular, split-front rig optimized for carrying essential gear while remaining compatible with parachute harnesses, rucksacks, and body armor.
The system allows airborne troops to deploy with their basic fighting load while ensuring clearance for reserve parachutes—a feature that distinguishes it from standard chest rigs and plate carrier-mounted panels. However, its practicality extends beyond airborne operations, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking for an advanced chest rig.
We have a single one of these available and it is sold as is.
