The SORD field pack (3 day plus) has been developed and put together with over 30 years of military pack experience. The pack has been designed and manufactured at our factory facility in Melbourne, Australia. The 1606T polymer frame has been imported direct from the USA.
Pack Layout:
The spacious main top compartment is contoured around the pack frame to maintain as close to normal centre of gravity as possible yet is large enough large enough for all your miscellaneous personal equipment ranging from communications, weapon CES, clothing etc. Separated by an internal zippered divider, the bottom compartment is large enough for sleeping equipment such as your sleeping bag in a bivvy or can be left open for longer items. Access to the lower half is via a single flap lid with external MOLLE for the attachment of additional equipment and the capability of running a hydration cover down either side of the pack. The main access lid and sleeping bay lid both have a adjustable draw string closure with para-cord and barrel locks for additional retention and weather protection. An M18A1 Claymore antipersonnel weapon pouch is fixed on the top of the lid compartment for quick access. The Claymore pouch will comfortably accommodate one weapon with all test equipment, cable and firing device in its issue bag. Under the lid is also a wide mesh zippered pouch for personal admin items. Total size of the SORD Field Pack is approx 80 litres internally.

Harness:
The contoured shoulder straps transfer the weight effectively across the back and over the shoulders providing additional comfort over old ALICE style packs. The hardened foam padding minimises sagging, hot spots and bunching by dispersing the weight over a greater area. Open back ventilation area provides breatheability to the system better for hot and or tropical climates. The field pack straps are adjustable for height and includes chest snap and two 'tri glides' for better stability for stretcher carries..
Removable External Pouches The SORD Field pack comes complete with four molle accessories pouches that can be attached to suit the operators needs.
The SORD large field pack utilises the latest 1606T solid polymer frame ratesd to 100kg direct from the USA. The primary design advance is the re-curved load stabilizer bar that spans the wearer’s shoulders. This bar cradles the load at the optimum balance point for lateral load stability while effectively distributing pressure over the shoulders and down to the hips. Because the stabilizer bar is located at the torsion node point created by the shoulders and hips twisting the frame in opposite directions while the wearer walks, the bar does not pitch the load side to side; the cradling ends of the bar only roll on the latitudinal axis.
Frame Features:
- Compact & Lightweight
- 28% lighter and 2" shorter than the #1603 frame while still stably supporting loads up to 100KG.
- Made from a new polymer for superior field durability.
- The backward curving stabilizer bar design also creates ample room for the wearer’s arms to move backward for improved range of arm motion.
- Numerous attachment points as well as two built-in jam cleats.
- Impact resistant, capable of surviving 32 fps impacts with concrete fully loaded (55KG)
Standard issue MOLLE large shoulder and belt pad sets can be used with the #1606MM frame. The Lid Claymore pouch will hold one complete weapon in bag. The Sleeping bag compartment has drawstring throat closure. External lid-face is molle covered and the main compartment opening has double drawstring choke closure.Note: Custom orders in other patterns are possible but first call us to discuss availability and lead time.
