SPITFIRE MK II CRYE Plate Carrier, plate carrier vest

The SPITFIRE MK II is a second-generation plate carrier vest, developed based on user feedback. Compared to the original model, simplifying the construction has allowed for a reduction in weight. It is supplied without a front platform and with basic sides, so the user only adds the accessories they need.
