SDS Interceptor DCU

While hunting for Kevlar inserts for my Woodland IBA, I came across this vest for sale and thought that it was just too good a bargain to pass up.





While I've seen reference pictures of US troops wearing these prior to the transition from wearing Tri Colour desert camouflage, I've no real idea about what specific units actually were issued with these vests, or if it was just a case of if you got issued one rather than the Woodland version then you were lucky.

This turned up in the post and the first thing that struck me was just how much heavier the IBA is with the Kevlar inserts.
The vest came with a Groin protector in Woodland pattern, so now I've got two Woodland Cock Knockers, one with the Kevlar insert and the other with kipmat cut to shape.

In the last week I've also had a Collar Yoke arrive, this is in Woodland pattern and I've added it onto my DCU IBA, with the Woodland Throat Protector.

I had previously bought an SDS Fighting Load in Tri colour, So I have taken the pouches from that and added them onto them onto the IBA and added a Tri Colour Camelbak.

I am looking to get a pair of the fake airsoft SAPI plates by Toy Soldier to fill out the IBA and make it that bit sturdier.
