Deltoid Axillary Protection System (DAPS) in woodland camo

[P-E]

Hello

 

Some time ago I found a DAPS for my woodland OTV :

 

 

Axillary Protection System

 

 

 

Deltoid Protection System

 

 

 

I never saw soldier wearing them, but well another variant developped by Natick Lab :

 

 

I first thought it was experimental because I never see it worn by soldiers but I finally change my opinion : I found some pictures of USAF airmen from 21st and 31st Security Forces Squadron wearing them during an exercice in Germany on Oct. 19, 2007.

Here's pictures of 31st Security Forces Squadron during their training in Germany wearing this protection :

I know this is a ten-year-old post, but I've been trying to find woodland deltoid protectors and wasn't even sure if such an item existed!

Thanks to this thread, I know now they do but they're as rare as hen's teeth!

In fact, the only instance I could find a set for sale was from a eBay UK auction.
