Trenton, NJ – February 27, 2025 – Switlik Survival Products, a global leader in innovative survival solutions, proudly announces the re-design and re-launch of its Best-In-Class X-Back MOLLE+™ Air Crew Life Vest. Engineered for unparalleled comfort, durability, and safety, the X-Back MOLLE+™ is a thoughtful update to Switlik’s legacy of excellence in Constant Wear Life Vest design.
Approved under ETSO 2C504 and compliant with IOGP690 Regulations, the X-Back MOLLE+™ Air Crew Vest is designed with the needs of aircrew members in mind, ensuring superior functionality and adaptability in the most demanding conditions. The X-Back MOLLE+ remains the lightest weight and most durable option for offshore pilots, crew, and passengers.
The redesigned X-Back MOLLE+ has eliminated the leg straps, added a back strap for additional support, and moved the lifting strap & buddy line inside the vest cover to lower the profile and add room for accessories. The vest now incorporates cutting-edge laser-cut Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment (MOLLE) system, allowing users to customize the vest with mission-critical accessories, including CA-EBS.
Key Features Include:
• Ergonomic Design: The signature X-Back design ensures optimal comfort, especially in seated positions, by transferring the load away from the neck.
• Lightweight and Compact: Weighing only 3.95 lbs, the low-profile design minimizes interference with helmets or other gear.
• High Buoyancy and Dual Inflation: Equipped with twin inflatable chambers and two 18g CO2 cylinders, providing over 35 lbs of buoyancy.
• Enhanced Safety Features: Integrated locator light, emergency whistle, lifting strap for emergency scenarios, detachable spray hood, and floating buddy line.
• One-Size-Fits-All: Adjustable features provide an exceptional fit for a wide range of body sizes.
• Heavy-Duty Construction: Metal adjusters and FR nylon fabric ensure long-lasting durability and performance.
The X-Back MOLLE+™ also boasts certifications that meet or exceed international safety standards, including TSO-C13d, ETSO 2c504, and IOGP690 regulations. This makes it the ideal life vest for professional aircrew members and organizations prioritizing safety, reliability, and versatility.
“At Switlik Survival Products, we are committed to designing equipment that not only exceeds expectations for quality, comfort, and innovation but also evolves to meet the demands of a changing market,” said Sarah Switlik, Chief Operations Officer. “The X-Back MOLLE+™ Air Crew Vest is a testament to our dedication to protecting lives with solutions that seamlessly adapt to the dynamic needs of today’s aircrew.”
