MOLLE (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) Military Pack Bag

The MOLLE consists of a modular rucksack with removable compartments and components, and a combating load vest that can accept detachable pockets for the Rifleman, Pistol, Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW) Gunner, and Grenadier configurations. The modularity allows individuals to tailor the load to meet assignment needs. One waist belt serves both the vest and backpack, and allows quick-release of the backpack from the waist belt. The MOLLE will be made of woodland camouflage, water-repellant coated fabric.
MOLLE is also known as MOdular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment. It is used to define the current generation of load-bearing equipment and rucksacks utilized by the United States armed forces, especially the United States Army, and its use is also growing in the British Army in the form of the Osprey Modular systems.
