Ballistic assault vest

Ballistic Assault Vests are extra body armor used by UNSC Marines. They are worn over the wearer's fatigue uniform, and are made of black nylon.

The assault vest has many detachable pouches for ammunition magazines, as well as a holster for a sidearm.

Staff Sergeants Avery Johnson and Nolan Byrne used ballistic assault vests throughout the duration of the First Battle of Harvest.
