The backpack is great, both in terms of build quality and the materials used (although the cost is also high). It fits perfectly as an addition to the Direct Action Halifax backpack, unlike side pockets from other companies – for example, the Wisport Sparrow did not fit and I had to return it. The price is very high, which may be discouraging, but apart from that it is hard to find other alternatives. Overall, despite the price, I am satisfied with the purchase.

The tactical backpack has a capacity of 12 liters with the possibility of direct attachment to the Spitfire tactical vest. It was made of durable and damage-resistant 500D Cordura and laminate. It provides space for carrying and storing necessary equipment.

It features a roomy main compartment closed with a two-way zipper. A pocket on the front is designed for smaller accessories, and two side pockets allow you to carry a water bottle or water bottle. Inside the main compartment is an additional zippered pocket. A velcro panel on the front gives the possibility to attach any emblems, such as the national flag, unit emblem or so-called Morale Patches. The backpack is compatible with Direct Action Spitfire MK II and Spitfire Plate Carrier vest models.

A backpack of very good quality. It works great with a plate carrier, because traditional backpacks with straps are uncomfortable to wear in that setup. It is worth buying comfort pads from the Spitfire vest – I recommend this solution.

The backpack is fine. Even though it has a 12L capacity, thanks to its well-thought-out compartments and extra pockets, it is much more practical. Unfortunately, when attached to a plate carrier, the plastic YKK zips turn out to be not very durable – all it took was catching a branch during a march and one zip broke, which I only noticed after a few hours. On the one hand, that's a flaw, but on the other, it shows how light the backpack is to wear.
