Sometimes… a split second is all you have! In life threatening situations there are times when a soldier has to react within a split second… take off or divest his body armor either to allow for faster movement or decrease weight. Situations like emergency evacuation of a sea vessel, during tactical operations in hostile terrain when he has to swim or wade through or when he faces a near drowning situation, when caught in branches or debris or overturned/submerged vehicles, when medics need to treat wounded soldiers, etc. The conventional ballistic over-vests are cumbersome to put on or off.

Instavest from MKU is a tactical load bearing ballistic over- vest with MOLLE system. It is a result of extensive R&D and user feedbacks. It uses a unique snap-off release system, which when engaged, results in an immediate release of the over-vest from the body. It is equally simple to reassemble and wear it on again… quickly. Its ergonomic design allows for very comfortable body movements, good ventilation & heat dissipation. Suitable material used in its construction makes this over-vest an excellent all round performer in extreme weather conditions ranging from sub zero to 50⁰c.

Its anthropometric design ensures that it does not interfere with NBC gear and is compatible with aircraft & ground infantry vehicles during aerial delivery operations. Care has been taken to avoid usage of any metallic components in the over-vest to avoid secondary fragments..
