English term or phrase: kitted up

Aus einem Artikel über spezielle Tauchteams, die Fehler an Unterwasseranlagen beheben:

The crews operate in teams of three, with one or two members heading underwater while a tender, who is connected to the divers via cable, remains on the surface and communicates with his colleagues below the surface via intercom.
The divers, when ***kitted up***, look like they might have walked straight from the set of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, only with much more hi-tech equipment.

Ich habe "to kit out" (jmd. ausrüsten) und kitting" Zusammenstellen) gefunden und verstehe es folgendermaßen
"Wenn die Taucher ihre Ausrüstung vollständig angelegt haben, sehen sie aus, als wären sie gerade dem Film „20.000 Meilen unter dem Meer“ entsprungen – nur eben mit einer wesentlich technischeren Ausrüstung." - das ist natürlich nur die Rohfassung (2x Ausrüstung ist ja sehr häßlich).

Könnte mir jemand diesen Sinn von "kitted up" bestätigen?
TIA
