Is there a quick way to release the LBS to check wounds or render first aid? The U.S Army system has emergency pull cord by which the vest can be immediately detached from the wearer’s body in just one pull. This is an important practical consideration, especially if wearer collapses onto the ground after sustaining injuries on the battlefield.
This new SBO is based on the First Spear plate carrier systems, so the understanding is that the new buckles are so efficient that they effectively replace the emergency pull cord.
@@thepathfinder7230 the (now) previous gen version uses a velcro pull tab which releases the right shoulder and waist support that enables quick removal via the left of the person. I can imagine this new system just needing to release the sides and pulling it up towards the head for removal. Imo both are equally accessible and quick for removal.
The belt component LBS design is the same design as those used in the 80s. While I was issued the new SBO design in the 90s, I went back to belt design when I turned operational as it was much more comfortable & much better in heat dissipation. Went one big round and end up with the old design. Heehee
decades ago nobody take global warming into factor ma. now weather hotter and hotter and fighting in urban areas, can get bloody hot. so even when the 老兵 old troops have tougher training and more tekan previously, new generation have to tahan the heat.
Fun fact, I'm a old bird , deployed with new bird in ICT . Whenever I put on my SBO, the young ones will say wah, so cooling nothing in between the chest , can change with you , my one very hot lol.
This is the new version. The one you’re talking about just didn’t have the camouflage pattern, and it was brown in colour, but same design, same components.
Have you tried loosening the side panels by re-stringing the elastic on the back? Although I do get what you mean it does get quite annoying to re-string it every time you use the plates.
I bought 100 packets of chicken rice for a community party from a friend whose business is slow, on my son’s birthday, this friend gave my son a $100 Ang pow. Very steady and appreciative friend I got!!!
Perhaps some female DSTA engineer who didn't serve NS . Lol . Perhaps..... Well it's the same as the old German G36 gunsight , design by engineers, on paper good concept . In practice rather hard to aim.
Ehh you can do it quickly in the dark with practice. also in this video he puts it on over his head. I prefer to leave one side buckled up & undo the shoulder strap so I can put it on sideways.
"armour" exposes the abdomen for the demo. since the gov always favour scholars and think so highly of them, why A* and/or DSTA has not come up with a competing design for the US TALOS suit, or a dragonskin alternative?
The armour seem to focus more on mobility and comfort. Most likely a "light" armour. The unit doctrine this armour use for is speed and endurance. I'm sure they have other varieties of that address your issue.
@@RandomPerson-tz7wk u could've said the LBS was adjusted for a short guy with a smaller plate in the LBS. the bikini armour u were suggesting isnt armour or effective. "light armour." hahahahahaha.
Ballistic plates are intended to stop rounds targeted at the upper torso area which contains the heart, lungs, and liver. These organs are considered as a higher priority for protection as compared to the abdomen which is mostly the small and large intestine. It would not be practical for the ballistic plate to cover the entire torso.
@@hahahalolx89 sure, so ppl can just die with their intestines shredded outside, or from the faeces in the body cavity. brilliant idea to use bikini armour, im sure the US Army is using bikini armour for their troops too.
Could've done better with the sliding panel. Rather have a velcro or a clip. The belt thing is rather cool being a separate item from the vest. Although the sotong-like design reminds me of the past. Overall it looks comfortable. The high cut helmet design is awesome. Why couldn't have they done all these during my ns time. 🤣
I see a lot of people criticising the sliding method, but it's actually really easy & quick to use once you get used to it. (This guy makes it look hard) He also didn't demo that the shoulder straps use the same but shorter method of securement. I find it's faster and easier to leave one side fully buckled and put it on sideways instead of lifting it over your head
Looks like it's designed with inputs from people sitting in air-con room working 8-5 desk jobs. Imagine having to put this on quickly, in the dark, dead tired, and lack of sleep!
LBS belt is the only thing needed. The rest will potentially create heat stroke n load bearing to wear off n NS men . Designer forgotten Singapore is Hot, Hot, Hot and hv nv gone to real war b4.
The lbv without the plates is actually not too hot. With them in it gets a bit sweaty but I'd certainly prefer to have the option to put plates in an actual hot war. (Although I've never actually seen the ballistic plates, they just give us dummy blue plastic ones I hope they do have them lest we end up like the russians with fake plates😅)
SAF : we need to design a new webbing for the conscripts DSTA: say no more , presenting to you the new concept. Take the popular old school SBO , add LVB MK2 ..... Tada.... New ILVB SAF: Sold. .... Conscripts : SMLS
Generally, there's not much weight on the waist belt at most a couple of magazines full water bottle and whatever you can fit in a utility pouch. Also, he doesn't show it here but on the inside of the waist belt there are pads that are velcroed to it so you can move them around to make it quite comfortable. Not to mention that you can loosen & tighten it as you like.
If you base on game or some countries forces. Their webbing are more advanced. Is this some country phase out item selling to Singapore or Singapore own design? If base on this reporter wearing. I wonder how you perform breakfall and prone. Either you break your rib cage or hurt your stomach
Now the helmet so light. Before this the old one wear already 1+1 also hard to count especially under the hot sun with camo and sgts screaming in your face :’) brain can’t function
actually if you weigh both, the old helmet is lighter. new helmet is made of some super heavy dense plastic. less coverage, but still heavier than old one
It doesn't. But even if it did, the pouches are modular so you can move them around to where you like them. For example, you can put the front pouches on the side of the belt or even on the back of the vest if you wanted to.

By the time i put on my SBO + LBV, the war is over, lol
That sliding mechanism doesn't look that practical if you need to don the vest quickly.
I'm pretty sure its faster or the same since its stretchable, you can just don the vest without unlocking the side belt panel.
Concerned it could easily be fouled with sand, as well.
I can already picture how a encik will answer this question. THAN F***ING WEAR IT THE WHOLE TIME!
Nope. With practice it’ll be second nature
@@dying7121 tbh it ain't faster in taking out XD

Although I do get what you mean it does get quite annoying to re-string it every time you use the plates.
2:00 i can see this will be a problem for quite some time, especially if you need to move quickly.
I suspect most soldiers will keep one side always locked, and just wear it like its a tee shirt and buckle/unbuckle the other side.
Looks better than the ILBV, why are there differences for combat unit vs combat support units LBS? Thought the SAF said every soldier is equal?
less pouches to put snickers and biscuits into.
You must be naive to think every soldier is equal.

how to lie face down with bag in front ?
Cool.. i stil prefer my old times sbo....:)
Yes , not so troublesome !
im using the new FBO in 6SIR now . it is quite comforting
Exchange leh, i don't like my old one lol
What if immersed in water? Extra weight added surely & cumbersome to remove - safety aspect.
Just hope the jettison system really works. But it looks really tiny to locate and pull though
