This vest is an advantage for soldiers that have to be in place in all branches for the reason of safety, protection and tactical readiness. Less fatigue means that a soldier can go further and faster in a much more profound way. The tactical advantage will be evident to all who use this system.

The Archangel IFLBA re-directs the load bearing to a stronger, more secure area of the body, which will reduce injuries to the spine and its supporting structures. It allows greater range of motion in the head/neck/shoulder regardless of its loads carried. The nominal changes in total measured weight are negligible especially considering that the Archangel IFLBA creates less fatigue which equates to greater levels of job performance and decrease injury occurrence. The Archangel IFLBA also provides ergonomic support for the spine. The added benefit of this will be evident with prolonged periods of standing, sitting, walking, running, laying prone, and laying supine.

The IFLBA alleviates load bearing and resistance to shoulders, upper back, neck by decreasing fatigue in those areas.

EVALUATION AND ANALYSIS: DR. Richard Kuhns, 2010
“Changing the load bearing dynamics of the current IOTV(Improved Outer Tactical Vest) and MBAV(Modular Body Armor Vest) to something that has little or no negative effects on the spine and its supporting structures is an ideal way to decrease fatigue and injury, and will thereby increase performance, endurance and tactical readiness. The ARCHANGEL IFLBA does this easily.”
