Test Drive an AttackPAK at SOF Week

Tuesday, May 6th, 2025

We’ve improved everything about carrying heavy battle kit.

AttackPAK builds better kit for soldiers, focused on improving the ergonomics of carrying heavy equipment, enhancing human performance, and preventing injury. Too many dudes are living life in pain caused by carrying heavy equipment improperly with all of the weight of their kit on their shoulders and spine, resulting in crushed spinal discs and nerve damage. It doesn’t matter how much you work-out spinal discs and nerves don’t get stronger. One miss step can be a career ender.

The human body is better suited to carry heavy equipment on the stronger hips and legs like mountaineers have been doing for decades. Until the AttackPAK Integrated Load Carriage that hasn’t been possible. Gun belts, body armor, and backpacks are not compatible so soldiers don’t use the pack belt, and tie it out of the way. This design fixes that and improves everything that is flawed with legacy packs.

Improvements:
– Better ergonomics
– Lighter weight
– Less expensive
– Easier to balance
– Quick ditch, easy don
– Mission adaptable
– Upgrades legacy equipment

The system is built with a 2oz Gravity Pocket™ on the back of your gun belt, combined with a 6oz Spine™ that goes into your plate carrier to redistribute the weight of your plate carrier off your shoulders and onto your hips. A 16oz Spine™ goes into your ruck and also plugs into the Gravity Pocket™. Both Spines™ quick ditch and are easy to don by yourself.

The High Speed Gear NVG Pouch (NSN #: 6650017260532) is already recognized for its rugged construction, secure closure system, and streamlined design allowing for quick access and minimal bulk.
