Featuring the latest advancements in state-of-the-art technology, Bianchi International and Gregory Mountain Products have developed the ultimate backpack system for the 21st century warrior. Designed to meet the stringent field requirements of the U.S. Special Forces, Navy Seals and Army Rangers, this system combines superior load-bearing technology with advanced backpack design and offers a modular system capable of efficiently carrying up to 120 pounds of equipment.

This backpack system is part of the U. S. Government Body Armor Load Carry Program (BALCS) and consists of three components. These three, the Backpack, Patrol Pack and Butt Pack, have been uniquely configured, enabling a soldier to customize the load for specific mission requirements.

For over 20 years, Gregory packs have been world-renowned for their fit, comfort and performance. They have been used extensively as the pack-of-choice for world-class expeditions. Using a CAD/CAM system and precision technology, our R&D team, headed by Gregory founder Wayne Gregory, inventively modified a commercial pack that would transfer the load effectively, allowing for multiple adjustments to fit sizes ranging from the 5th to 95th percentile of the SOF operator.

In addition to the packs patented suspension system, another key feature of this system is its modularity: the Butt Pack attaches to the Backpack or the U. S. Government Load Carry System (ELCS); the Patrol Pack attaches to the Backpack, and is also compatible with SPEAR BALCS components.

The UM21 system is offered in woodland or desert camouflage configurations and can be procured as a complete system or in individual components.
