A tour of one version of an actual and current USAF Pilot Survival vest by Nutnfancy. In this four-part series I go about products not classified in the vest and impart a little philosophy, 'as I go. The same mesh is Ultimate Survival Technologies (a supplier usually military) and is a great, functional design. It has multiple pockets that can be configured in a variety of safe places. Note that each element has a "baggied" to protect against moisture and connected to the vestSecurity. The advantages of this particular vest are the reporting and communication. This jacket shows a base load, which is often provided by GPS devices for the theater, extra ammunition, cold, and other items will be added to the pre-installed. Several improvements on this vest could include: a medium sized fixed blade knife, survival (like the Kabar knife, A1 Ontario RAT-7, or Fallkniven), better flashlight (like Streamlight TL-2), better multi-tool (such as Leatherman charge)improved water quality storage devices, the inclusion of trioxane lighters, double pocket magazine for M9 pistol, Camelbak system and a focus on the entire light weight. However, the expansion of the elements in a jacket USAF as is often limited by lack of command / unit and financing of the military supply system (NSN), which often includes the best and most appropriate response.
