Robi‘s Back Panel

Robi’s Back Panel was developed based on the operational experience of Slovenian special forces. The concept: a lightweight, fast-attach module that can be stored in a large pack at the patrol base and quickly mounted to a plate carrier when needed. In case of unexpected contact, the user can ditch heavy gear and move out with just their plate carrier and Robi’s Back Panel.

The panel features two main compartments—one sized for a hydration bladder (CamelBak-type), the other for extra mags, grenades, or minimal rations. A dedicated medical version is also available, outfitted with removable transparent inserts and external MOLLE webbing for attaching additional pouches or gear.

Robi’s Back Panel attaches to the KaroTac plate carrier via the MOLLE system. It can also be worn with the included shoulder straps, allowing it to function as a backpack without interfering with weapon handling.

The mounting system allows the panel to be rotated forward without detaching it from the plate carrier—critical in situations where fast access is key.
