    Hello

    this is the ARKTIS 1601 Combat Vest, Center Europe Camo version, which is widely used by the French army. Not really a reglementary item, but worn by many units, mainly between 2001 and 2008, before the adoption of CIRAS and RAV 2007, over the GPB-3 body armour.

    Very nice Nico, I can see the British design features in this one,cool item, and good to know that French forces wore these items.
