The Case for a Plate Carrier Hydration Pack
Plate carrier hydration packs are a transformative addition to your tactical gear, whether you're engaged in intensive training, high-stake operations, or outdoor adventures. They introduce a level of convenience and performance that makes them indispensable in scenarios where endurance matters the most.
The main advantage of a MOLLE hydration pack is its enhanced hydration experience. With an easy access drinking tube, IMS Pro Gen 3 provides much more convenient hydration when compared to your standard water bottle. Further, a hydration bladder is going to hold much more water, meaning you stay hydrated longer.
These tactical hydration packs are designed to integrate seamlessly into your existing gear setup. With their modular design, you can customize the hydration system to suit your specific needs, be it long-distance treks, arduous hikes, or complex tactical operations.
Above: IMS Pro Gen 3 Combo is optimized for mounting to ICEPLATE EXO® Gen 3 Ultralight Minimalist plate carrier for body armor cooling, heating and hydration.
Why Choose the IMS Pro Gen 3 Combo?
So, you've decided that a plate carrier hydration pack is the right choice for you, but now you need to decide which one to choose. We might be a bit biased, but the IMS Pro Gen 3 Combo is the ultimate solution.
Versatility: For starters, the IMS Pro Gen 3 is built to fully integrate with ICEPLATE® Curve, the world's most revolutionary water bladder. This means that this is the best hydration carrier to take advantage of the cooling/heating/hydration capabilities of ICEPLATE®.
The IMS Pro Gen 3 can also hold any Medium ESAPI armor plate for protective versatility.
Superior Design: We designed the IMS Pro Gen 3 to make life easier for you in the field, which is reflected by its features:
- Universal 6x4 MOLLE and/or hook and loop Velcro field compatibility
- Built at our HQ in Knoxville, TN, USA from USMCA compliant laminate for an incredibly durable construction.
- Ultralight, with the IMS Pro Gen 3 sleeve weighing just 0.3 Ibs or 4.8 oz.
- Conformal design geometry with ICEPLATE® Gen 3 allows you to finally “sit flat” for mounted/vehicle operations
Durability: Made from Squadron laminate, IMS Pro Gen 3 is meant to handle the harshest conditions. In the field, a burst water bladder or ripped hydration pack can be a complete disaster. Worrying about a situation like this takes your mind off the mission at hand, so rest easy knowing you're in good hands with IMS Pro Gen 3.
