Tasmanian Tiger Introduces New Long-Range Mission Backpack: TT BASE PACK 75

Saturday, August 31st, 2024

Built upon the V2 Carrying System, the new TT Base Pack 75 is a robust mission pack that can be individually configured from a volume of 75 liters up to 90 liters by adjusting the removable lid.

Knoxville, Tenn. (August 2024) – Tasmanian Tiger®, a tactical nylon line of products distributed exclusively for the US market by Proforce Equipment, Inc., is pleased to introduce a new large mission backpack: the TT BASE PACK 75. This robust, lightweight long-range backpack can be individually configured depending on the application. It features modular expansion options from a volume of 75 liters up to 90 liters by adjusting the lid. It includes a removable, height-adjustable lid with gear loops that feature an easy-access pocket on top of the lid. When used without the lid, the backpack is closed with the rolled snow guard. The roll-top snow guard, without the lid, can be used in two locking positions. The shaped head recess ensures freedom of movement when heavily loaded, and the divided main and bottom compartments allow for the separation of items in the pack.

The TT Base Pack 75 is built upon the V2 Carrying System. This system is a size-adjustable carrying system for medium to heavy loads and has a high contact point on the back panel that offers a tremendous range when adjusting the back length. The V2 Carrying System is designed for versatility and featured on Tasmanian Tiger’s backpacks where loads are likely to vary between moderate to heavy. The design of the V2 Carrying System allows for easy adjustment to maximize ergonomic benefits based on the load size.

The TT Base Pack 75 also features a height-adjustable chest belt, fixation for hiking poles or ice axes, gear loops, antenna ports into the main compartment, and MOLLE system on most attachment areas. The MOLLE loops on the front, sides, lid, and hip belt enable a wide range of additional pouches to be added. It is also hydration system compatible and features a First Aid compartment inside the lid. In addition, the TT BASE PACK 75 has side compression straps that provide compression around the perimeter of the base.

With a volume of 75 liters (expandable up to 90 liters), the TT BASE PACK 75 weighs in at 110 oz./3.12 kg. and measures 30 x 13 x 10in./77 x 33 x 26 cm. It is made from Cordura® 700 Denier and is available in Olive and Coyote for an MSRP of $449.

Sneak Peek – Large Becker Patrol Pack from Bongo Gear

Tuesday, July 9th, 2024

Bongo Gear reports that the Large Becker Patrol Pack (LBPP) has completed prototyping and field testing and it is now in production. It goes on sale tomorrow, 10 July in Green and Tigerstripe.

Bongo Gear’s owner Tom G has worked with Ethan Becker, the originator of the Becker Patrol Pack and several knife designs, to produce a modern version of the famous pack and Ethan has approved this new design.

The LBPP was a project Tom decided to take on after multiple requests regular BPPs users who required more capacity. The answer was to go with a larger, external-frame version of the BPP with a few more outside pouches with a goal of 65 liters / 90 lbs capacity.

He related to SSD, “I was averse to adding more outside pouches because I’ve read studies which suggest five or six places is about the maximum for most people for remembering where things are. I know from experience too many pockets/pouches on a pack can be a bad thing.”

He found that his concerns weren’t an issue with the LBPP considering the lid registers as a separate entity while the main body, with its combination of buckled and zippered pouches, categorizes things into smaller groups (buckled and zippered) making it easier to remember what’s where.

Above you can see the new LBPP side-by-side with the current Mk II and the MOLLE 4000 while below is a great comparison of the two BPP models.

The LBPP will be supplied with an internal frame sheet and end-users can set it up with their preferred external frame. Tom says this is because, just like favorite flavors of ice cream, people have different favorite external frames. The pack can utilize legacy ALICE frames, the Marine Pack frame / MOLLE 4000 ruck frame (DEI 1606-MC), and the newer DEI 1622 Arch frame, among others.
