Yes. The AR500 Armor Testudo Gen 2 Plate Carrier can utilize 10x12 or 11x14 plates for the front and rear of the carrier. It can also fit 6x8 side plates in the cummerbund of the carrier without having to add a pouch as it already has inserts to fit 6x8 side plates.

According to your answer here, this carrier can accommodate 6x8 side plates on the sides but the one I just received is clearly fitted for 6x6 plates. I have 6x8 side plates.
