The Black MOD Issue Field Pack is a robust, 30-litre rucksack designed for specialist UK service roles and police units requiring a low-profile, durable carry solution. Built to the same rigorous standards as the standard-issue MTP infantry kit, this rucksack is designed for day-long operations where reliability and quick access to equipment are paramount.
