The Radio Pack is a multi-faction backpack in ArmA 3. It was added with the release of the Contact DLC.

Overview

This is a premium asset that requires ownership of the Contact expansion pack.

Designed to house a powerful long range radio for infantry squads, the Radio Pack leaves a small amount of room (80 "mass") to store additional ammunition/equipment.

It retains an inefficient stamina-to-capacity ratio due to its extreme base weight of 160 "mass". The spare pouches also cannot store much extra gear, resulting in the Radio Pack's overall usefulness being quite limited compared to similarly-sized backpacks.

Trivia

• Inspiration for the Radio Pack's design takes cues from various radiopacks designed by the U.S.-based gear company Mystery Ranch. The actual radio on the other hand, is based on the U.S. military's "AN/PRC-117".
• In spite of its appearance, the Radio Pack does not provide players with the ability to communicate via radio. It is purely cosmetic in nature and will not function unless the player has an actual radio item equipped.
• The Radio Pack is simply a retextured model shared for use by all main factions. There are no differences in weight nor capacity between the variations, with the sole exception being the choice of camouflage.
