FRAG 5 Retro-Fit Program
October 2006 – February 2007 King Bag and Manufacturing was involved in the FRAG 5 Retro-Fit program. We produced fabric hinges and fabric door handles for 54,000 Humvee units. The existing hinges needed to be replaced due to the threat of IED explosives. The retro-fit allowed both doors to swing open fully and quickly allowing the soldiers to exit the vehicle if it were hit by an IED explosive.
