PLATE5 MOLLEminus Plate Carrier

Blue Force Gear PLATE5™ MOLLEminus Plate Carrier – Ultralight Armor Carrier for SAPI / ESAPI Plates

Minimalist low-profile plate carrier for rapid deployment and full loadout capability

The PLATE5™ (formerly PLATEminus V5) by Blue Force Gear is a purpose-built armor carrier designed to strip away everything you don’t need while retaining mission-critical modularity and plate protection. Constructed from ULTRAcomp® high-performance laminate and precision laser-cut for maximum durability, it’s built to carry SAPI or ESAPI plates in either a slick or fully-kitted configuration. Whether you’re outfitting for covert response, plainclothes ops, or overt tactical engagements, PLATE5 delivers without compromise.
