Dutch Navy Blue UBACs Shirt – Flame Retardant – Grade 1

This Flame Retardant combat UBACS shirt is genuine Dutch Navy issue, so you can be sure that these are built to last and designed to take a lot of punishment.

UBACS stands for under body armour combat shirt, and as the name suggests it is designed to be worn underneath body armour/flak vests. The main body is made from a sweat-wicking material, designed to be breathable and keep the wearer cool and dry.

Other features of this UBACS shirt include:

• Half length neck zip.
• Sleeve pockets.
• Velcro adjustable cuffs.
• Fabric mix – approximately 30% Flame Retardant, 70% Para aramid, 2% Elastane and 1% antistatic

Please note, the fabric was flame retardant, when new, and will still retain some of that ability, but after many washes, please be aware of any possible lessening of this.

Did you know? The UBACS shirt is a relatively new addition to the British army uniform, it came about to compliment the Osprey body armour system, developed for ground troops in 2003 for the Gulf War 2 (Operation Telic).
