Intra-Squad Comms
Vest Mounted Antenna System
(VMAS) — BNC
American-made, body-worn antenna engineered for VHF/UHF handheld radios (30–512 MHz). Routes from the radio, over the shoulder, and weaves into the operator's back webbing—improving mobility, reducing target signature, and enabling tactical concealment.
Berry Compliant
Weavable Architecture
Traditional whips obstruct vision and snag on doorways. The VMAS is a flexible, body-worn antenna housed in an abrasion-resistant sleeve designed to thread through MOLLE webbing. It is UL/CSA flame resistant (VW-1) and Berry Amendment compliant, meeting stringent U.S. military safety requirements.

BNC 90° (Right-Angle)
Right-angle BNC reduces cable strain and provides a cleaner fit against gear—ideal where a straight connector would be an obstruction.
-
Vest-Mounted Routing (Cleaner cable path)
-
Tight Spaces (Radio pouches, holsters)
-
Reduced Strain (Connector longevity)
Adapter Bundles (50% Off w/ Bundle):

Optimized for tactical communications with consistent VSWR performance across the entire spectrum.
-
⚡ VSWR < 2.3 (30–110 MHz)
-
⚡ VSWR < 3.5 (110–300 MHz)
-
⚡ VSWR < 4.4 (300–512 MHz)
-
🌊 Weather Resistant Construction

🛡️ Integrated Sleeve Protection
Tactical Application
Operator Focused: By moving the antenna radiating element to the back of the plate carrier, the VMAS clears the operator's workspace and reduces the "radio man" target signature.
-
✓Unobstructed Movement: Routes behind operator.
-
✓Low Signature: Conceals easier than whips.
-
✓Field Proven: Abrasion & flame rated.
Included: 1x VMAS Antenna Assembly (BNC variant as selected).
Connector Verification
This product uses a BNC Male connector (Straight or 90° depending on variant selected). Ensure your radio accepts a BNC connection (twist-lock). Not compatible with TNC or SMA radios without adapters—see bundle options above.
