The Police Aircrew Ditching Escape Vest is a highly specific PFD1, designed and manufactured to exacting customer requirements. The vest has the two main purposes of providing the wearer an emergency air supply to escape a submerged aircraft, and a floatation device to support the wearer on the surface. Additional pockets are provided for survival and signalling items as well as a personal radio. Firearm holsters and SOS Hydration System can also be built into the vest during manufacture.
