- Why Bulletproof Zone?
The Tasmanian Tiger Base Pack 60 FO is a 60-liter long-range mission backpack built around a large front opening for fast, full-depth access to the main compartment, setting it apart from top-load-only packs in the same size class. Constructed from CORDURA 700 denier fabric (500 denier on Multicam), it weighs 7 lbs and measures 30 x 12 x 9 inches. The pack is available in Black, Olive, Coyote, and Multicam.
Front Opening Changes How You Access Your Gear
Most large-volume mission packs force you to dig from the top. The Base Pack 60 FO adds a large front panel opening (the "FO" in the name) that lets you reach into the full depth of the main compartment without unpacking from the top down. For a 60-liter load, that difference in access speed is meaningful when time or confined space is a factor.
Volume That Adapts to the Mission
The Base Pack 60 FO starts at 60 liters, and its roll-top snow guard, used when the lid is removed, expands usable volume to approximately 75 liters. The snow guard locks in two positions, so the expansion is controlled rather than just open-ended. The lid itself is height-adjustable and fully detachable, giving the pack two distinct configurations depending on load and conditions.
A Carrying System Built for Extended Loads
The V2 Plus carrying system underpins the Base Pack 60 FO's suspension. The padded hip belt is removable and can be used independently as a Warrior Belt, a practical option when the pack comes off but load distribution still matters. A pull-forward hip belt adjustment works alongside a classic front adjustment, and a height-adjustable chest belt, side compression straps, and perimeter base compression let the carrier tune the fit to the load rather than accepting a fixed geometry.
MOLLE Coverage and Mission-Specific Details
The front panel carries a 6-wide by 9-long MOLLE field; each side panel carries a 5-wide by 9-long field; the lid carries a 6-wide by 4-long field. Antenna ports run into the main compartment, the pack is hydration-system compatible, and fixation points for hiking poles or ice axes are included. A front-side handle and gear loops on the lid round out the external attachment options.

Who This Is For and Isn't
The Base Pack 60 FO suits operators, security professionals, and serious outdoor users who need a high-volume pack with fast, front-panel access to gear, particularly those who carry comms equipment (antenna ports), hydration, and modular MOLLE-mounted accessories over extended missions or multi-day operations. The removable hip belt adds utility for users who want a standalone duty belt option from the same kit.
The Base Pack 60 FO is not a ballistic or armor-bearing pack and carries no ballistic protection rating. It is not designed as a low-profile or concealable carry option. Users who need a smaller daily carry or a pack under 30 liters should consider a different size in the Tasmanian Tiger lineup.
Common Questions
What does "FO" mean, and how does the front opening work?
FO stands for Front Opening. The Base Pack 60 FO includes a large panel opening on the front face of the pack that gives direct, full-depth access to the main compartment, an alternative to top-loading that is faster when the pack is standing upright or space is limited. The front opening works alongside, not instead of, the standard top access.
How does the volume expansion to 75 liters work?
When the detachable lid is removed from the Base Pack 60 FO, the roll-top snow guard closes and secures the top of the pack. Rolling the snow guard out expands the main compartment volume from 60 liters to approximately 75 liters. The snow guard locks in two positions, so the expansion can be set at an intermediate level rather than fully extended.
Can the hip belt be used separately from the pack?
Yes. The Base Pack 60 FO's padded hip belt is fully removable and is designed to function independently as a Warrior Belt. This allows a user to detach it from the pack and wear it as a standalone duty or load-bearing belt, which can be useful when the pack is stowed but equipment still needs to be carried on the body.
Is the Base Pack 60 FO compatible with a hydration bladder?
The Base Pack 60 FO is hydration-system compatible. No bladder size or compatible brand is specified for this pack, so confirm bladder dimensions against the pack's internal dimensions (30 x 12 x 9 in / 77 x 31 x 23 cm) before purchasing a bladder separately.
What is the difference in material between the Multicam version and the other colors?
Black, Olive, and Coyote variants of the Base Pack 60 FO use CORDURA 700 denier fabric. The Multicam variant uses CORDURA 500 denier fabric. Both fabric weights are paired with T-Square Rip FD material. All variants are listed at 7 lb with identical dimensions.
Can the Base Pack 60 FO ship to my state?
The Base Pack 60 FO is a non-ballistic tactical backpack and is not subject to body armor shipping restrictions. No state-level restrictions apply to this product. It is subject to standard US export regulations.

The Bulletproof Zone Promise
When you buy body armor, you're buying your safety. We don't take that lightly. Here's what every order from Bulletproof Zone includes.
1. Authorized dealer of every brand we carry
Every plate, vest, and carrier we ship comes from the manufacturer directly to our warehouse. We don't sell gray-market product, surplus, or returns. That means factory-fresh stock, the full manufacturer warranty, and real after-sale support — the kind only an authorized dealer can offer.
We maintain authorized-dealer relationships with America's leading body armor brands, including Spartan Armor Systems, AR500 Armor, RMA Defense, Shellback Tactical, Caliber Armor, DFNDR Armor, Protection Group Denmark, BulletSafe, BulletBlocker, and over 40 more.
2. Best price, guaranteed
If you find a lower price at another authorized dealer of the same product within six months of your purchase, we'll refund the difference.
Why the "authorized dealer" requirement? Because gray-market and surplus armor may not be genuine, may have a compromised supply chain, and almost never comes with a manufacturer warranty. We won't price-match against products that may not actually protect you.
3. Free fitment consultation
Body armor only protects you if it fits. Email us a photo and your measurements before you order, and one of our specialists will help you size your carrier and plates correctly — at no charge, no obligation.
4. Trusted by thousands of customers
Bulletproof Zone has been a trusted authorized dealer of America's leading body armor manufacturers for over five years. We have over 4,000 verified Trustpilot reviews from real customers across all 50 states.

- Discounted items and "free with purchase" items are not eligible.
- The item must be in stock on the competitor's website at the time of your request.
- The price match is valid for six months from the date of your purchase.
- The competitor must be an authorized dealer of the product. Auction sites (eBay, Overstock), discounters, and gray-market resellers do not qualify.
