TacMed Adaptive First Aid Kit (AFAK) Pouch
What is the TacMed Adaptive First Aid Kit (AFAK) Pouch? A multi-orientation IFAK carrier measuring 6.5" H × 4.5" W × 3" D.
The TacMed™ Adaptive First Aid Kit (AFAK) Pouch solves a real tactical problem: not every operator has the same vest configuration.
When to Choose This AFAK Pouch
- Operators with mixed vest configurations — The AFAK's vertical/horizontal MOLLE mounting solves the problem of fitting a full-size IFAK on any vest regardless of remaining real estate orientation.
- Personnel who rotate between mounted and dismounted roles — Removable insert with optional lanyard converts the same kit contents to small-of-back carry when no vest is worn.
- Medical personnel needing external accessory space — External MOLLE platform allows mounting supplemental items (CPD, markers, gloves) directly to the kit.
- Unit-level standardization — Available in four colors (Black, OD, Coyote, Multicam) to match unit-issued plate carrier colors across diverse formations.
