The XPV’s four-piece platform and cummerbund mitigate coverage gaps due to misaligned panels and small weight fluctuations. It features an external carrier, an optional internal concealable carrier, and four soft ballistic panels with multiple configurations. There are internal radio channels for cable routing and a concealed magnet pouch for simple attachment of an Axon body-worn camera.
