This roughly 40L “Radio Pack” in Desert DPM seems to rival the carrying capacity of a camel. With none of the tactical drawbacks. Just to make sure you heard that right, this pack can fit approximately what your 3-Day Assault pack can, and a bit more. Desert DPM originally consisted of subdued sand and khaki hues when it was first developed in the late 1980's, however some rather intrepid Middle Eastern countries figured that the original four toned desert pattern worked pretty darn well. Thus the British had to replace the sand and khaki hues with a light brown on sand derivative. Something to do with preparing for a Storm in the Desert.
The radio pack is chocked full of features including an absolutely excessive amount of mesh on the shoulder straps and back panel to regulate the user's temperature. The lid features a buckle compartment for quick access storage. The sides of the pack feature expandable sides to dramatically increase carrying capacity along with an absurd amount of straps to hold everything securely. Additionally, the pack has a fold out compartment for a radio that can also provide quick access to a variety of items (or whatever you can jam in there).
Just remember that when you take this bad boy out for a hike it’s not rucking its yomping. IKYKIK
