Serbian Armed Forces Sapper/Combat Engineer M-98 Serbian Woodland Bomb/Fragmentation Protective Suit Set – Original Kit Bag Included
This M-98 protective suit is issued by the Serbian Armed Forces and is specifically designed for sappers, combat engineers, and EOD technicians. Featuring the Serbian Woodland camouflage pattern, the suit is purpose-built to be simplified for streamlined production without sacrificing functionality or protection in the field.
These suits are commonly used by personnel tasked with clearing light explosive ordnance and landmines. The upper portion of the suit includes two internal pockets for ballistic plate inserts, offering additional protection where it's most needed. Both the vest and fragmentation sleeves are fitted with small utility pockets, allowing the operator to carry essential tools required for ordnance disposal directly on their person.
A key feature of this suit is its detachable fragmentation sleeves w/Kevlar inserts & groin pads W/Kevlar inserts, designed to enhance mobility and comfort when full coverage is not required. In high-risk or rapidly evolving situations, EOD technicians and combat engineers can quickly remove the fragmentation protection attachments without needing to take off the main protective vest, which continues to provide ballistic protection through its plate inserts & soft inserts that effectively protect the wearer from small arms fire of various caliber ranging from 9mm to 7.62x39mm that often encounter in that specific region that the wearer operates within
