Templar’s Gear® CIBV2 Medic HC Plate Carrier

The Templar’s Gear^® CIBV2 Medic HC Plate Carrier is derived from the CATAPHRACT GEN2 integrated ballistic vest concept, offering full ballistic coverage within a modular platform. It is primarily designed as a soft armor carrier, while allowing the insertion of standard hard armor plates to increase protection in elevated threat environments. The construction combines durable Baucent monolithic laminate with a comfort-enhancing inner padding, enabling extended operational deployment without unnecessary bulk. Laser-cut MOLLE/PALS slots allow mission-specific configuration. The Medic HC variant is produced in a high-visibility colorway intended for rescue and medical units.

Construction and Materials

The CIBV2 Medic HC utilizes Baucent monolithic laminate, delivering high structural strength while maintaining a low-profile form factor. The carrier retains its shape even under full combat load. The internal quilted lining improves wearer comfort and contributes to impact absorption. The entire system is engineered for demanding operational environments.

Ballistic Protection and Compatibility

The base configuration functions as a soft armor carrier with integrated plate pockets for standard hard armor plates. This enables scalable protection according to threat level. The construction provides coverage of critical torso areas and supports the integration of additional protective modules. The system allows configuration adjustments based on operational risk and deployment requirements.

Modularity and Equipment Integration

Laser-cut MOLLE/PALS slots enable direct attachment of pouches and equipment without additional MOLLE webbing panels. The carrier features Rapid Open Connector buckles on both the cummerbund and shoulder straps, along with a front placard mounting interface secured by buckles. Expanded hook-and-loop fields allow placement of patches and infrared identifiers. The platform is compatible with ballistic belts and auxiliary protective components including groin, shoulder, and neck protection modules.

Ergonomics and Identification

Adjustable shoulder straps and cummerbund provide precise fitment, ensuring stability even under full load. Ballistic shoulder pads are included in the standard configuration to enhance comfort during prolonged wear. A reinforced drag handle enables emergency extraction of a casualty. This variant incorporates enlarged rear hook-and-loop identification panels for high-visibility markings, critical during rescue operations.

Scalable Platform Design

The CIBV2 Medic HC includes attachment points for neck protection and collar modules. The system supports various cummerbund configurations depending on operational preference. It functions as an expandable ballistic platform that can evolve from a base carrier to a fully integrated protective system.
