These initiatives reflect SOURCE’s broader investment in next-generation protective equipment and operational gear Enforce Tac 2026, 23-25 February, Hall 6 Booth #23512 February 2026 – SOURCE Tactical Gear, a global leader in tactical protection, hydration systems, and modular load-carry solutions, announces a significant advancement in women’s ballistic protection, continuing its long-term commitment to developing dedicated solutions for female fighters and law-enforcement personnel.
