Ive seen photos of Army SF using them in woodland pattern. I dont think Ive seen them issued in any other color. Ive been looking for one of those for awhile, as well as the AWS chest rig from the same timeframe.

I actually found a photo of a SF guy using that vest in coyote and ranger green. Ill post them up later, ill need to resize them.

The pros surrounding this tactical vest vs. body armor comparison largely depend on the nature of its intended use. Vests boast wearability and a good enough protection level, making them the perfect gear for daily use, such as routine patrol duty. Besides that, plate carriers boast maximum protective capacity, making them irreplaceable in combat. Long-distance deployments also need plate carriers because of the possibility of harsh environments and unprecedented threats.
