The Huron™ Direct Action Assaulters Pack-MV is a zip on lightweight pack that can be worn stand alone via shoulder straps or zipped on your EPIC™, PICO-MVW, or PICO-MVS. The key features of this innovative design are a padded lower external general purpose pouch, and un-padded upper external general purpose pouch, and an expandable internal compartment with a hydration bladder hanger. Additionally, the pack has an external zipper that allows you to expand or collapse the main compartment as needed. When expanded, the main compartment supports a 117 radio. When collapsed, its low profile design will still hold all your mission essential needs for a 24-hour operation. The top of the pack has two comms ports and one hydration port with elastic openings. A removable mesh beaver tail attaches to the exterior of the pack to provide additional storage for a helmet, jacket, or other readily accessible items.
