Navy SEALs performed many operations in the snowy mountains of Afghanistan, so we decided on an outfit that includes equipment for the cold climate.
The main way the operator is protected from the environment is the PCU LVL 7 coat. Its main feature is the PrimaLoft filling. It’s a synthetic alternative to fluff which keeps heat in even when wet and provides excellent thermal insulation. Another important feature of the filling is that it can be heavily compressed, making the coat take up little space and allowing it to be carried in a compression bag.
To protect themselves against the weather, the operators wear web gear under the coat, keeping it open. In case of a sudden blizzard, they can quickly zip the coat up and hide their supplies and ammo from the precipitation. That’s especially important in mountainous terrain — a clear and sunny sky can very quickly be replaced with wet snow and strong wind. This can lead to frost on clips and ammo, which would hinder the officer’s combat readiness.
