Axillary protectors OTV
Axillary Protectors OTV
The Axillary Protectors (OTV) are designed to integrate with issue OTV (Outer Tactical Vest) and IOTV (Improved Outer Tactical Vest) systems, providing enhanced coverage and protection to the underarm region. These add-on components are intended to increase fragmentation and projectile protection in vulnerable areas that are typically less covered by standard soft armor configurations.
Built for durability and field performance, the Axillary Protectors are constructed from heavy-duty materials designed to withstand abrasion and operational wear while maintaining compatibility with issued armor systems. They are supplied in standard issue sizing for seamless integration.

Why Choose Axillary Protectors OTV?
The Axillary Protectors OTV provide a critical extension of protection for users operating in environments where fragmentation risk is elevated. By reinforcing the underarm area—one of the more exposed regions in standard armor setups—these protectors enhance overall survivability without compromising compatibility or mobility.
Ideal for military personnel using issued OTV or IOTV systems, they offer a simple, rugged upgrade to existing armor configurations.
