Poseidon PUDT1623 UDT Vest | Tactical Inflatable Flotation Vest for Military & Rescue Operations
The Poseidon PUDT1623 UDT Vest is a high-performance tactical inflatable flotation vest designed for military, law enforcement, special operations, rescue, and maritime personnel. Featuring an ergonomic donut-style flotation design, the vest provides a close-fitting, low-profile configuration that maximises wearer comfort, mobility, and in-water performance while delivering 120 Newtons of buoyancy.
Engineered for demanding operational environments, the PUDT1623 combines exceptional durability, modularity, and multiple levels of redundancy to provide dependable flotation when it matters most.
Durable Low-Profile Construction
The outer shell is manufactured from flame-retardant (FR) treated 3-way Cordura® fabric in a tactical matte black finish, providing outstanding resistance to abrasion and harsh operating conditions. Concealable retro-reflective panels improve visibility during rescue operations while remaining discreet when not required.
Modular Flotation System
The PUDT1623 features a modular design that allows operators to configure the vest to suit specific mission requirements.
Available flotation options include:
- Standard single chamber inflation cell
- Twin Chamber Floating Baffle inflation cell
- Damage Resistant inflation cell designed to remain functional even after sustaining damage
This flexibility enables organisations to tailor the vest for a wide variety of maritime, tactical, and rescue applications.
Quadruple Redundancy for Maximum Safety
The Damage Resistant and Twin Chamber Floating Baffle configurations incorporate multiple independent safety systems, including:
- Twin independent manual CO₂ inflation actuators
- Twin independent oral inflation tubes with integrated over-pressure relief valves
- Twin independent dump valves
This unique arrangement allows users to completely deflate the vest for continued diving operations before reinflating it using either the secondary CO₂ inflator or one of the independent oral inflation systems.
The result is a quadruple redundancy flotation system, providing exceptional reliability and operational confidence in critical situations.
Comfortable “H” Harness Design
The integrated H-style harness retention system distributes weight evenly across the body, providing a secure, comfortable fit while maintaining excellent freedom of movement during prolonged wear.
