Big Rig Modular Load Carriage System

The Big Rig represents the next generation of mission-ready, packable load carriage systems. Designed for demanding operational environments, it transforms standard external frame packs into a fully modular, mission-configurable platform capable of transporting oversized, irregular, and mission-critical equipment that traditional rucksacks cannot efficiently support.

Engineered as a multifunction load expansion system, the Big Rig functions as a scalable beaver tail-style carrier, enabling operators to configure loads for a wide range of mission profiles including reconnaissance, communications, medical evacuation, drone transport, and sustainment operations.

Each Big Rig variant is purpose-designed for compatibility with specific external frame and suspension systems, ensuring an optimized, engineered fit and reliable performance under load.

Mission Capability Overview

The Big Rig is built to support complex and non-standard equipment carriage requirements, including large hard cases, drone systems, communications gear, medical evacuation platforms, and crew-served weapon support systems.

Through its integrated laser-cut GRID architecture and modular insert ecosystem, the platform enables rapid reconfiguration for mission-specific loadouts such as:

84mm Carl Gustaf ammunition carriage systems
Medical evacuation and litter transport kits
Water procurement and sustainment systems
Drone and reconnaissance equipment transport
Communications and C-UAS payloads
Field logistics and entry tools
