Berghaus has presented the FLT system of lightweight military backpacks at this year's IWA Outdoors Classic, which includes backpacks with a capacity of 60, 45, 35, 25 and 24 liters and a wide range of accessories in the form of additional pouches for various purposes. The idea is that the system offers the lightest possible solutions, while providing the user with ergonomics of use.

The FLT series was first presented to the public in March 2022 at the Enforce Tac in Nuremberg. The goal of Berghaus was to create the lightest possible system of military backpacks, while providing comfort to the user.

The backpacks are made of 560 dtex polyamide, which meets the TL 8305-0278 requirements of the Bundeswehr (including IR camouflage). Accessories in the form of various types of additional pockets are mounted using Accessory Connector Hooks (ACH), made of hardened aluminum. Inside the backpack one can mount e.g. organizational panels or ones for radio communication devices. The TITAN 60 and HEROS 45 and 35 backpacks are additionally equipped with the Front Access (FA) to the main compartment. There is a MOLLE mounting system on the FA flap.

The FLT CARGO POCKET IR is covered with a soft Velcro on the inside, to which one can attach Berghaus organizers or e.g. the Helikon VIS or the Tasmanian Tiger. photo. Medard Starzycki, WMASG
