Armed Assault Wiki

The Brassard, Military Police is a vest worn by West German military forces in ArmA 3. It was added with the release of the Global Mobilization - Cold War Germany Creator DLC.

Overview[]

This simple white-coloured brassard is exclusively worn by members of the Bundeswehr's Military Police (Feldjäger). The armband is worn around the upper left arm.

Although its appearance would suggest otherwise, the Brassard allows the wearer to carry up to 20 "mass" units worth of ammunition/items.[CfgWp 2] The Brassard itself has an unloaded weight of just 5 "mass" units.[CfgWp 1] Wearing the Brassard will not protect the wearer against damage from small arms fire or indirect explosions.

Trivia[]

  • The standalone MP Brassard was not originally available as part of the DLC's assets at launch. It was only added to the asset pool after the release of Update 1.5.[1]
  • Unlike the MP Gear vest, the standalone Brassard "vest" model consists of just the armband and clearly lacks pouches, belts, or pockets of any kind. In spite of this, the armband "vest" is magically capable of carrying items within an invisible container.
