When you are operating in unforgiving terrain, there is no margin for error. Water, salt, and weather are constant threats to mission readiness, especially when it comes to medical gear and critical supplies. The Chinook Waterproof Rescue Pack was built specifically to solve this problem. Designed with input from military operators, this pack is military grade, parachute capable, and completely waterproof.
Unlike traditional packs, the material used in the Waterproof Rescue Pack does not absorb water. That means it will not get waterlogged or heavy, even after being submerged or soaked. Whether you are in rainstorms, swift water rescue operations, military open ocean parachute jumps, or adventure rafting excursions, this pack ensures your gear stays bone dry, lightweight, and ready for deployment.
Key Features and Why They Matter
- Parachute Ready: The bottom of the case includes dedicated attachment loops designed to secure the pack directly to a parachutist. These loops allow you to rig the pack safely and keep it in place during airborne operations. A centrally located attachment loop is built in for a letdown lanyard, ensuring safe recovery during jumps.
- Multiple Carry Options: A rugged carrying handle and additional attachment loops on the top of the pack allow for secure transport by hand. These same loops also enable the pack to be hung from a wall, a bulkhead, or other vertical surfaces for organized storage during operations.
- Waterproof Zippers: High quality waterproof zippers lock out water even during prolonged exposure. This protects your loadout whether you are conducting amphibious training, operating in heavy surf, or moving through sustained rainfall.
- Versatile Carry System: Adjustable shoulder straps and a padded waistband allow the case to be worn comfortably as a backpack. The extra long shoulder straps are designed to accommodate a jumper’s legs during parachuting, giving you full versatility whether you are jumping, swimming, or moving overland.
- Marine Grade Durability: All buckles and hardware are engineered to resist corrosion and are impervious to salt water. This makes the pack highly reliable for maritime operations where exposure to salt spray and immersion are constant factors.
- Pressure Control Valve: A flap protected exterior purge valve allows you to relieve internal pressure or evacuate excess air from inside the pack. This feature is critical during altitude changes or when submerging the pack in water, preventing unwanted expansion and ensuring compact, secure carriage.
- Exterior Storage: The full length waterproof exterior pocket provides quick access to gear you may need to reach in a hurry. This compartment offers the same waterproof protection as the main case, so items stored here remain completely dry.
- MOLLE Compatibility: PALs webbing on the front and sides provides full compatibility with MOLLE pouches and gear. This lets you scale and configure your loadout to meet mission-specific requirements.
- Customizable Interior: The interior features a hook and loop lining that allows you to attach and secure pouches of various sizes. This ensures your gear remains organized, protected, and mission ready in any scenario.
- Included Pouches and Tapes: Each pack includes four large and four small splash proof pouches for storing supplies, along with ten blank name tapes for quick and easy identification of contents. These internal organization options reduce time spent searching for equipment when every second counts.
- Reflective Safety Markings: The pack comes configured with removable reflective tape on the front and on each shoulder strap. This feature enhances visibility during night or low light operations and can be removed for tactical situations requiring light discipline.
- American Made: Like all Chinook gear, the Waterproof Rescue Pack is made in the USA and built to meet the standards of those who rely on their equipment in life or death situations.
