Grade A - Official Cadet MOD Pack MK2 – 50 Litre BTP (British Terrain Pattern)

The Official Cadet MOD Pack MK2 is the gold-standard load-carrying solution designed specifically for the UK’s Cadet Forces (ACF/CCF). With a total capacity of 50 Litres, this rucksack bridges the gap between a day pack and a full-scale bergen, providing ample space for weekend exercises, fieldcraft, and annual camps. Finished in BTP (British Terrain Pattern), it is designed to integrate seamlessly with current Multi-Terrain Pattern (MTP) uniforms. Constructed from rugged 600D Tac-Poly, this MK2 version features a modernized airflow back system to ensure comfort during long-distance "tabs" and weighted marches.
