The Cobra seat offers blast protection maximizes soldier comfort with its removable insert and side bolsters.Maximizing injury tolerance thresholds and Soldier survivability requires that seats be ergonomically designed and designed to accommodate the body profile of the user population. A seat in a military vehicle must be designed to accommodate Soldiers wearing either no gear or full BDU and equipment. By not accommodating Soldiers in gear, an improperly designed seat pushes the seated Soldier away from the desired H pt and decouples the occupant from the seat. GSS’s Cobra system readily accommodates all Soldiers, regardless of what equipment they are wearing. The backrest panel and side bolsters are readily removable to accommodate Camelbaks / back borne equipment or canteens/side mounted equipment.
