What’s Inside the Kit

Bastion® Ghost™ NIJ Level IIIA Ballistic Helmet — Made in the USA

A stripped-down, no-rails, no-shroud version of our flagship Bastion® helmet, built for those who need pure ballistic performance without helmet-mounted accessories. The Ghost delivers the same high-cut comfort, American-made composite shell, and NIJ IIIA protection—optimized for mobility, low profile movement, and minimal signature.

Chase Tactical Quick Response Plate Carrier

A lightweight, rapid-on carrier designed for emergencies, home defense, and fast-response scenarios. Built with U.S. veteran design principles, it uses Mil-Spec IR-treated Cordura, quick-release buckles, streamlined fitment, and minimal bulk for maximum speed and maneuverability. 

(2) Chase Tactical Level III+ 10x12 Shooter’s Cut, Single Curve Plates

Rifle-rated protection that stops high-velocity M80, M855, and M193 threats. Each plate features ultra-hard steel construction with Rhino™ eXtreme spall mitigation, NIJ 0101.06 certified, and DEA test protocol performance—offering thin, rugged, reliable ballistic survivability.

Why This Kit Matters

The Tactical Essentials Kit gives you the core elements of a real defensive setup:

• Head protection that actually matters—not an Airsoft toy.
• A carrier that throws on fast and won’t slow you down.
• Rifle-rated armor that stops the rounds that matter most.

This is the foundation of readiness—whether for home defense, emergency response, tactical training, or unpredictable real-world threats. It’s the "Easy" button to a complete kit with trustworthy gear used by police, veterans, and vigilant civilians around the US.

No fluff. No filler. Just the essentials that keep you alive.
