ST, standing for Större, meaning Larger,
and ST Lätt, meaning a lighter version
As said the size is the first thing that is different. A lot smaller than the ST and is said to hold 35 liters. This would make it more of a daypack instead of a multiday pack. The pack itself is made out of canvas and all the belts and straps are made out of webbing; coarsely woven cotton, like the ww2 British material, also used a lot after that era. Right up into the late 80's in the Dutch army actually. Absolute bombproof, but maybe not the smartest choice in a cold climate. If it gets wet and then cold it handles as plywood. Not something you'd want, when out in the field. Fumbling around with the metal fittings under cold conditions is no fun either, be that with clumsy gloves or bare fingers.
The pack: 1 main compartment with a smaller one on the inside on the back. And extra compartment with zipper under the topflap and a small compartment with zipper on the inside on the back.
All of the straps are easily adjusted, when needed and most are detachable. What I found peculiar are the bright metal caps and buckles! Quite conspicuous in the Swedish countryside, I think. Not really tactical. And this backpack comes with a waist strap.... sort of. It actually is a narrow webbing belt, fastened with the same sort of buckle as the rest. No quick release, that is. It keeps the pack from wobbling about, but that's about it.
