RAID V2 Gürteltaschen-Set

What is the First Spear Tube™ quick-release system?

The First Spear Tube™ is a rapid-release connector system that attaches the RAID V2 to a vest or plate carrier. A single pull of the 550 cord toggle releases the kit from the vest in one motion — allowing it to be dropped, handed off, or repositioned instantly. Reattachment is equally simple: slide the interlocking tubes together until they click.

Can the tourniquet be accessed without opening the RAID V2?

Yes. The exterior elastic band on the RAID V2 secures the C-A-T® tourniquet for immediate access without opening the pouch. This is a critical operational feature — tourniquet application is the highest-priority first intervention in extremity hemorrhage, and any delay from pouch access can be life-threatening.

What is the difference between Basic and Advanced RAID V2 configurations?

The Basic configuration includes C-A-T® tourniquet, S-Rolled Gauze, ETD, HyFin® Vent Chest Seal, gloves, and shears. Advanced configurations add airway management and additional respiration management supplies. Both are available with standard gauze, Combat Gauze® (CoTCCC-recommended), or Celox™ Gauze.

Is the RAID V2 compatible with all plate carriers?

The RAID V2 attaches via hook and loop panel and the First Spear Tube™ connector system, which is compatible with most modern plate carriers and ballistic vests that have a hook-and-loop front panel. Belt attachment hardware is also included for use without a plate carrier.

Is the C-A-T® in the RAID V2 CoTCCC-recommended?

Yes. The C-A-T® (Combat Application Tourniquet®) included in all RAID V2 configurations is CoTCCC-recommended and is the Official Tourniquet of the U.S. Army. The Combat Gauze® variants also add a CoTCCC-recommended hemostatic gauze option.

Does the RAID V2 Fanny Pack Kit contain CoTCCC-recommended items?

The RAID V2 is configured with CoTCCC-recommended hemorrhage control supplies. Specific contents depend on the variant — refer to the product listing for the exact configuration. CoTCCC-recommended items typically included are C-A-T® tourniquet and Combat Gauze® or equivalent hemostatic dressing.

Can I train with the RAID V2 or are the supplies single-use?

Medical supplies inside the RAID V2 are single-use clinical items. The pouch/case is reusable. Use training equivalents (non-clinical training tourniquet, training gauze) to practice kit access and deployment drills. Reserve mission-ready contents for actual emergencies.

Is the RAID V2 TSA-compliant for air travel?

Medical supplies like tourniquets and hemostatic dressings are generally permitted in carry-on and checked baggage, but specific items (scissors, shears) may require checked baggage. Consult current TSA and airline regulations for medical equipment before travel. Carry documentation that items are for medical use.

What is the NSN for the RAID V2 Fanny Pack Kit?

NSN availability for the RAID V2 depends on configuration. Contact MED-TAC International for current NSN listings, government pricing, and available contract vehicles for your procurement office.

What carry options does the RAID V2 support?

The RAID V2 is designed for waist/fanny-pack carry with an adjustable belt. It can also be worn cross-body or staged in a vehicle. Verify the specific carry hardware on the variant you are ordering.
