Optimized for Lateral Ballistic Coverage and Low-Profile Integration - The Rothco LACV Side Armor Pouch Set is a specialized tactical expansion kit engineered to add side plate capability to lightweight carriers without significantly increasing the operator's footprint.

These pouches are specifically tailored for use with the skeletonized cummerbund system of the Rothco LACV, filling a critical gap in personal protection for military and law enforcement professionals. Each pouch is constructed from high-durability 600D polyester, providing a rugged, abrasion-resistant home for standard small-format side plates. The attachment system utilizes two reinforced 6-inch straps that weave directly into the cummerbund webbing, ensuring a stable, bounce-free fit during high-speed maneuvers. A secure fold-over hook-and-loop flap closure keeps plates firmly seated even in inverted or high-impact operational scenarios.

Key Features

• 600D Polyester Construction: Heavy-duty fabric build ensures the pouches withstand the friction and stress of field use.
• Dual-Pouch Set: Sold as a pair to provide balanced protection and symmetrical weight distribution on both sides of the vest.
• 6-Inch Attachment Straps: Two vertical straps on each pouch provide a rock-solid connection to the carrier's cummerbund.
• Secure Flap Closure: A large hook-and-loop fold-over flap prevents plate movement and facilitates rapid insertion or removal.
• Low-Profile Dimensions: Measuring 5.75" x 5.75" x 0.5", these pouches provide essential coverage while maintaining a slim, tactical profile.
• Lightweight Performance: Weighing only 0.30 lbs per set, they allow for maximum armor upgrades with minimal weight penalty.

Why It Matters Standard lightweight carriers often sacrifice side protection for mobility; these pouches allow operators to scale their protection level upward based on the specific threat environment. The 600D material ensures that the added weight of ballistic plates is supported by a structurally sound carrier that won't tear or stretch under load.

How to Use / What Problem It Solves Designed to solve the lack of lateral coverage in minimalist vest setups, these pouches attach in seconds to the cummerbund. They are the ideal solution for users who need to carry 5" x 5" side plates to protect vital organs from flanking ballistic threats.
