FMA MS2000 Functional Distress Marker (TB702)
The FMA MS2000 Functional Distress Marker (TB702) is a working replica of the MS2000-style strobe marker that is widely seen on military helmets, plate carriers and load-bearing kit. FMA is a well-known maker of airsoft accessories and tactical gear, and this version is listed as functional rather than a dummy, so it works as a marker light as well as adding to the look of your loadout.
Marker strobes like this are a familiar piece of modern military kit, and fitting one is an easy way to make a milsim or special forces impression more convincing. Because it actually works, it also earns its place on night games and indoor CQB sites.
Uses in airsoft
At night games and in dark buildings, a marker light can help your team identify you, show marshals where you are or mark a position, such as an objective, a medic point or a respawn area. Before you use one in play, check with the site and your team how lights are being used, as some games have specific rules for strobes and marker lights.
For daytime play, it simply adds realism. Many players fit one to the back of a helmet or the shoulder strap of a plate carrier to match reference photos of real-world units.
Building your loadout
The MS2000 shape is instantly recognisable and suits a wide range of impressions, from modern infantry to aircrew and special operations. Pair it with other FMA accessories, such as PEQ boxes, helmet counterweights and IR covers, to build a consistent and realistic setup.

Compatibility
Please check the product images to see how the marker fits so you can decide where to mount it on your helmet, carrier or pouch. Battery requirements are not listed for this item, so check what is needed when it arrives and keep spares in your kit bag.
Care and maintenance
Remove the batteries if you are storing the marker for a long period, as old batteries can leak and damage the contacts. After a wet or muddy game, wipe the marker clean and let it dry before packing it away.
Check the battery compartment and any covers before use, and make sure they are closed securely so the light keeps working through a full game.
Who is it for?
Ideal for milsim players and anyone building a realistic modern loadout, as well as players who regularly attend night games or play at indoor CQB sites and want a practical marker light.
