Sabre Consultancies SBR-X Plate Carrier

Next-Generation Plate Carrier System

The Sabre Consultancies SBR-X Plate Carrier represents the next evolution in specialist load-bearing equipment, developed for professionals operating across maritime, amphibious and multi-domain environments.

Engineered in collaboration with industry Subject Matter Experts, the SBR-X has been purpose-built to withstand prolonged exposure to harsh operational conditions while maintaining full functionality, structural integrity and wearer comfort.

Every element of the Sabre Consultancies SBR-X Plate Carrier — from material selection through to structural architecture — has been chosen to support mission-critical performance where reliability is non-negotiable.

This is not simply another plate carrier.
It is a scalable combat system designed for modern operational requirements.

Built for Maritime Extremes

Operating in littoral zones demands equipment capable of resisting water saturation, excess weight gain and material degradation. The SBR-X addresses these challenges through the use of advanced hydrophobic materials that actively minimise water absorption while preserving durability.

Constructed from high-performance fabrics including Squadron B52, FPS Curv and Kydex, the carrier delivers exceptional strength-to-weight performance without unnecessary bulk.

The result is a platform that remains agile, responsive and operational even after extended maritime exposure.

---

Scalable Architecture for Mission Adaptability

The SBR-X has been designed around true modularity, allowing operators to configure the carrier to match specific mission profiles and role requirements.

Compatible with Sabre Consultancies pouch systems as well as widely adopted placard platforms, the carrier integrates seamlessly into existing loadout ecosystems without forcing users into proprietary limitations.

Whether configured for low-visibility tasks or high-load operational profiles, the SBR-X adapts without compromise.

---

Advanced Plate Retention System

Security and accessibility are balanced through a multi-strap retention system engineered with built-in redundancy. Plates remain firmly stabilised under movement and load, while still allowing rapid insertion and removal when required.

The carrier supports SAPI ballistic plates and can also accommodate Soft Armour Filler (SAF) plates, providing flexible threat-level scalability without altering the carrier footprint.

---

Minimal Bulk. Maximum Efficiency.

Excess material creates drag, traps water and restricts movement. The SBR-X has been intentionally engineered with a minimalistic design philosophy to eliminate unnecessary bulk while maintaining full operational capability.

This streamlined profile of the Sabre Consultancies SBR-X Plate Carrier supports improved mobility in confined environments, maritime boarding scenarios and dynamic movement phases.

Ergonomic Load Distribution

A fully adjustable, MOLLE-compatible cummerbund ensures balanced weight distribution across the torso, reducing fatigue during extended wear.

Integrated Due Emme Spider quick-release systems on the cummerbund and AustriAlpin 25mm buckles on the shoulder straps provide rapid doffing capability without sacrificing structural stability — a critical feature in emergency scenarios.

---

Multi-Domain Operational Capability

While optimised for maritime performance, the SBR-X transitions effortlessly across operational theatres including:

• Maritime interdiction

• Amphibious operations

• Air assault roles

• Covert tasking

• Land-based deployments

Its scalable design ensures the carrier remains mission-ready regardless of environment.
