Modern special operations demand continuous adaptability. As mission profiles evolve from direct action recce to heavy urban breaching, an assaulter's rear kit must scale efficiently without transforming the back of the plate carrier into an unbalanced, snag-prone mess.  

Engineered by military supplier Ferro Concepts, the Back Panel Liberty represents the pinnacle of zip-on load-carriage versatility. Designed built around the Universal Carrier Attachment Standard (UCAS), it zips directly onto the Ferro FCPC V5, FCPC V6, and any UCAS-compatible plate carrier. The Back Panel Liberty integrates the best elements of Ferro's proven ADAPT back panel lineup into a single streamlined system. It provides purpose-built zones for two tactical radios, four ETC charges, a hydration bladder, breaching tools (such as Hoolie tools and bolt cutters), dual explosive charge quivers, and even padded storage for panoramic night vision goggles (GPNVG-18).  

Equipped with Ferro's proprietary "Zipper Bowtie" system, the panel locks its attachment zippers down solid, preventing them from creeping open during dynamic kinetic movements. It is the ultimate all-in-one rear platform for the modern assaulter and breacher.  

Key Features

• UCAS Zip-On Compatibility: Integrates seamlessly onto the Ferro Concepts FCPC V5 / V6 and all UCAS-standard zipper receivers for instant mission tailoring.  
• Proprietary "Zipper Bowtie" System: Built-in zipper lock mechanism clamps the UCAS attachment zippers down, preventing accidental zipper unzipping during dynamic movement.  
• Top 6x6 GP Pocket & Tool Storage: Features a 6x6 Velcro-flapped GP pouch with loop-lined interior, external elastic retention, three snap tabs for securing tools, and two rear hangers for quick mounting.  
• Comprehensive Internal Organization: Internal hook-and-loop closure section includes dedicated elastic retention loops for two tactical radios and four ETC charges, alongside a stretch hydration bladder pocket.
• Dual Convertible Charge Quivers: Left and right integrated side quivers feature dual bungee retention and convertible bottom envelope closures (can be closed for short charges or opened for long pass-through items), plus 1/2" outer webbing for flags or markers.  
• Panoramic NVG Pocket & X-PAC Beaver Tail: Padded lower GP pouch is sized specifically to house panoramic NVGs (GPNVG-18 / PVS-31) with internal tie-in points for sensitive items; integrated stowable X-PAC beaver tail deploys to carry bolt cutters or oversized charges.  
• Breaching Tool Pass-Through: Specialized pass-through pocket hosts a Hoolie tool or sledgehammer; when empty, the slot acts as a mounting point for the Dangler® AR.  
• 100% Made in the USA: Manufactured in the United States using 500D Cordura® and X-PAC® laminates; fully Berry Compliant.
