The Multi-Pocket Vest is a vest worn by FIA guerillas, L'Ensemble fighters, Livonian criminals, IDAP aid workers, and civilian hunters in ArmA 3. It was added with the release of the Laws of War DLC.

Overview[]

This is a premium asset that requires ownership of the Laws of War DLC.

The Multi-Pocket Vest is a sleeveless outdoor vest favoured by guerilla organisations and civilians alike. It has a weight of 15 "mass" units[CfgWp 1] and can store up to 70 units worth of ammunition/items in its pockets.[CfgWp 2]

Made from lightweight and durable fabrics, the Multi-Pocket Vest is designed with practical storage of small items in mind. It is available in three colour varieties and offers - albeit minimal, explosive protection. The vest specifically covers the wearer's chest, diaphragm and abdomen.

However, it should be noted that the Multi-Pocket Vest is not classified as ballistic-resistant and doesn't protect its wearer from gunfire or even moderately-sized explosives. With a measly damage reduction modifier of just 10%, the wearer will not survive being struck from even a single bullet at point blank range.
