This is the only plate carrier specifically designed for ceramic armor.

You are purchasing a GTS FIREFIGHT carrier and (2) Model 6906 edge-to-edge ceramic armor plates. For more information about the plates click Model 6906 ceramic body armor plate.

The side plate pockets are 6.25" X 5.5". 

If purchasing side plates separately for your GTS FIREFIGHT carrier, let us know at the time of the order.  Plates will need to be 6.25" X 5.5" to fit in the existing side plate pockets.  Modular pockets of any size can also be utilized.

Make sure you follow the sizing instructions below.  Returns for sizing are at customer's expense. Carrier is intended for minimum person size of 5'10" and 180 pounds or more.

GTS specializes in the development and manufacturing of ceramic armor plates.  There is an industry need for quality plate carriers and vests that can retain the ceramic particulate ejecting from the ceramic strike face over multiple impacts.  Mediocre armor built with inadequate strike face elements that restrict ceramic particles can be mitigated through an extremely well-built carrier.  Our GTS carrier adds multi-plies of 1670 denier ballistic Cordura® to each plate pocket.  This will help eliminate penetration of ceramic shards through the carrier fabric that can occur with poorly-built carriers or ceramic armor. In many of our tests, normal plate carriers come to pieces when struck by a projectile.  Take a look at the video below showing the GTS carrier shot with .30 caliber M2 AP.  The carrier handles it well with only a small entry hole showing in the fabric.

We do not carry carrier accessories.  The laser cut Molle is adaptable to any of your favorite accessory suppliers.
