USGI MOLLE II Large Field Pack Set
USGI MOLLE II Large Field Pack Set
US Government Issue Large Field Pack Set, in new and unissued condition. This complete system includes the large rucksack body, high-density polymer frame, enhanced shoulder straps, molded waist belt, and two sustainment pouches.
As a cornerstone of modern USGI field gear, this system was engineered to address the weight distribution and ergonomics shortcomings of the legacy ALICE pack. This updated "Large Field Pack" configuration represents the evolution of the MOLLE II system, moving away from the multi-piece designs of the early 2000s in favor of a more streamlined, integrated main rucksack.
A cornerstone of modern USGI field gear, this system was designed to replace the legacy ALICE pack. Manufactured by authorized contractors like Specialty Defense Systems (SDS), it features a modular PALS/MOLLE design that allows for massive load capacity and total mission customization.
