A-18 ARS Groin Protection

The A-18 ARS is a groin protection module that pairs hook-and-loop carrier attachment with a MOLLE interface on its outer surface, so you can run additional pouches on the same panel that covers your groin. Somewhere between a dedicated protection module and a front-row gear station, that's the ARS in one sentence. At 90 grams for the cover, it's the lightest module in the lineup, and the 33 x 32.5 cm (13" x 12.8") footprint gives you a real coverage area to mount against. Ballistic inserts drop in for fragment protection, sold separately.

• Hook-and-loop carrier attachment / mounts to the front hook-and-loop panel of nearly any plate carrier, no additional hardware required.
• MOLLE interface on the outer surface / rows of MOLLE webbing on the exterior let you attach pouches directly to the groin module without consuming belt or vest real estate.
• Accepts ballistic packs / the slots take aramid or UHMWPE inserts, so you choose based on your loadout weight budget.
• 33 x 32.5 cm coverage area / a 13" x 12.8" groin and upper-thigh fragmentation zone.

The A-18 ARS mounts to nearly any plate carrier with a front hook-and-loop panel. Compatible with the A-18 Skanda Plate Carrier, A-24 Titan 2.0 Plate Carrier, AAPC Mod.3 Plate Carrier, and A-18 Goliath-D Plate Carrier.

The A-18 ARS works within the Ars Arma module ecosystem as your groin coverage solution with built-in MOLLE expansion. For taller users needing coverage between the plate bag lower edge and the groin module, add the A-22 Plantain Abdominal Protection above the ARS. The A-21 Clover Groin Protection is a three-element groin module alternative. Upper-body coverage from the A-21 Gorzhet Neck Protection and A-23 Aylet Shoulder Protection rounds out a full-rig build.
