Can anyone identify this vest which the FIA guerillas, US specops, crewmen and snipers are using in Operation Flashpoint? The top image is showing how the vest looks on FIA guerillas and US snipers. It is the same vest but the sniper has it zipped up. The bottom image is showing the same vest in real life. It is the only photo I've found.
I wanted to know the name of the vest so I can search for reference to remodel that vest for my ArmA FIA guerillas addon for a perfect conversion from OFP to ArmA. I've been wondering that vest for years. I've even tried to ask BIS themselfs very long time ago, but I never got an answer.
Do you have any ideas?
