In March the Army will test the MOLLE-4000, a 4,000-cubic-inch ruck. Existing options are 3,000 cubic inches or 5,000 cubic inches.

Members of the 82nd Airborne Division will be the first soldiers to field a new rucksack designed specifically for airborne operations. The ruck borrows from both the ALICE and MOLLE systems.

The Army selected an external frame design along the lines of the current MOLLE Ruck, with a 3,000 cube+ capacity.

The Army's system contains two packs at this time, the MOLLE large rucksack, with 4000 cubic inch capacity, and the MOLLE assault pack, with an 1800 cubic inch capacity.
