SEAL Team - Behind the kit - 2nd Line Gear - Season 2
SEAL Team uses throughout the seasons real steel, battle proven kit and equipment being used in multiple environments. The unique ability to allow each operator within Bravo to personalise their equipment based on role, preference, comfort and usability is akin to real life personnel. This advantage of no one set of kit applying to all in the team ensures that viewers are given an insight into a huge number of manufacturers and brands available for purchase. My previous blog 'Behind the kit - 2nd Line Gear - Season 1' covered as suggested Season 1, packed with a huge wealth of knowledge and details for each of Bravo and their loadouts through the season, as does this blog.
As previously mentioned, rather than adding every single episode and breaking it down, my preference was to provide you the reader with a section per operator per set of 2nd Line Gear. For example if 2B9 Ray PERRY wears a Crye AVS and throughout the seasons changes his pouches configuration, I have noted all of them under one section for ease.
The kit and equipment predominantly hails from real steel manufacturers throughout Season 2 and the research has taken me a long time. This is yet another blog that doesn't exist anywhere else giving you the detail and links to recreate a 2nd Line Gear setup based upon one or a mix of Bravos' operators. As with all of my other blogs, an inordinate amount of HD images, low res images, trailers, videos and episodes were pored over, watched and re-watched to bring you this full write up. No easy feat...

Equipment manufacturers
Bravo as mentioned generally use well known real steel manufacturers across all of their kit. In relation to 2nd Line Gear plate carriers, rigs, pouches and ancillaries, the following are the main manufacturers of note;
Â
Jason HAYES (1B9)
HAYES continues to vary his 2nd Line Gear and as Team Lead he focuses predominantly on ammunition and technical equipment carriage. In each mission and environment he is deployed to he adapts his kit and utilises specific sets of 2nd Line Gear to suit mission requirements.
Loadout 1 - Maritime Environment
Season 2 Episode 1 initiates with a hostage rescue training exercise with Bravo inserting via HALO (High Altitude Low Opening) into the ocean. From here Bravo stormed the beach, assaulted the village and rescued the VIP. With a starting point of the ocean, Bravo and the team utilised maritime kit and equipment. HAYES begins the episode wearing the traditional maritime environment gear associated with Bravo from Season 1, the S&S Precision PlateFrame and assorted ancillaries. Low drag gear with good water drainage and lightweight / low ammunition carriage designed for combat rescue and engagement.

Loadout 2 - Standard Operating Environment
HAYES' utilises his favoured Crye Precision AVS during the second part of Episode 1 when he leads the team, infiltrating an oil platform taken over by hostiles. Traditional ammunition carriage and pouches are used as previously seen in Season 1. Reliable, proven gear again takes centre stage.

Loadout 3 - Standard Operating Environment - Mexico
When Bravo are deployed to Mexico to aid 'Infanteria De Marina', Bravo adopt the local 2nd Line Gear and uniform to blend in with the local forces so as to no alert non combatants to US involvement. HAYES in this role utilises the Mayflower Research and Consulting APC as a base and has a variety of pouches used in both the urban and jungle environment.

When tasked with conducting a close recce of an HVT, those in Bravo and HAYES further adopt a low profile setup carrying minimum ammunition and ensuring that they remain light on their feet and not bogged down with kit and equipment if a firefight arose. Another instance of Spiritus Systems featuring with battle proven gear.

Sonny QUINN (3B9)
QUINN generally carries the FN Mk 46 Mod I / FN Mk 48 Mod I, however in Season 2 is more typically seen carrying his HK416 therefore altering his base requirements for his 2nd Line Gear with lightweight magazine carriage rather than heavy box mag based pouches.
Loadout 1 - Maritime Environment

Full Metal (1A9) - Standard Operating Environment
Full Metal starts to make an appearance more through Season 2 as he becomes integrated with Bravo. His previous position as 1A9 does show up every now and then via his insignia patch however he quickly establishes himself as a reliable, tough addition to Bravo.
Full Metal is seen using the LBT-6094 plate carrier on multiple occasions and is likely done so through personal preference and previous experience of the carrier. Much like the Crye Precision AVS, it's adaptability and real estate is taken advantage of through use of multiple additional pouches throughout his appearances in Season 2.

Thoughts and opinion
If you haven't checked it out already, have a read of two of my previous blogs - 'SEAL Team - Behind the kit - 2nd Line Gear Season 1', again where I delve into the archives to bring you a breakdown of Bravos first season and 'SEAL Team - Behind the kit - 1st Line Gear', where I cover 1st Line Gear with breakdown, identifying the individual components of each of the teams kit.
Money factors into this if you're interested in recreating a specific set of 2nd Line Gear or wanting to use this as inspiration for a mixed setup. There are always alternatives or other manufacturers that could provide similar products depending on what you're after, however if you want to recreate a screen accurate reproduction of SAWYERs kit for example, your wallet will likely sting for a while.
With the 2nd Line Gear for Season 2 now covered in detail, standby for a full breakdown of 2nd Line Gear featured in Season 3...
