Vest Mounted Antenna System (VMAS) TNC 90° 

The VMAS TNC 90°, designed and made in the USA, revolutionizes intra-squad communications (30-512 MHz) by offering a body-worn antenna solution optimized for handheld radios. This system enhances operational mobility by running from the handheld radio, over the shoulder, and threading into the webbing on the communicator’s back, without compromising visibility or movement.

Durability and Compliance

Featuring an abraded sleeve for cut and abrasion resistance, the VMAS materials also meet UL and CSA flame-resistant ratings of VW-1 and adhere to the Berry Amendment. This ensures both safety and longevity under rigorous conditions.
