As part of the new Soldier Combat Ensemble, the Australian Army is issuing the Mystery Ranch 3-Day Assault Pack as their Medium pack. The pack’s bolsters make it compatible with the Tiered Body Armor System. The pack was selected for issue after a competitive trial conducted by 8/9 RAR and the 2nd Cdo Regt’s Development Cell. Although Australian Army officials say there is need for at least 6 separate packs, they feel they may be able to get along with just one frame system.

Holy shit.
Is this for real?
It’s for real. Came from Soldier newspaper.
Wow, I wish the people in the CF who makes decisions on packs will take a note from Australia…
Take a look at the abomination that they call the small pack and the new ruck…
I really really hope they don’t fuck up the rest of the TBAS / Diggerworks program. This is one of the first steps towards making up for the Land 125 disaster.
Fingers crossed this doesn’t jinx it.
Lucky Aussies, Mystery Ranch is the shit. That MR 3Day makes everything else look like back-to-school bags.
