MOLLE (pronounced , as in Molly's name) is an acronym for Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment . This is used to determine the current generation of load and backpack equipment used by a number of NATO armed forces, notably the British Army and the United States Army.
The modularity of this system comes from the use of Pouch Attachment Ladder System (PALS) woven equipment as a heavy duty nylon row sewn into a vest to enable the installation of various pockets and compatible accessories. This method of attachment has become the de facto standard for modular tactical gears, replacing the All-purpose Weightweight Individual Carrying Equipment (ALICE) system used in the earliest modular vest system (still in use with many police forces).

Assault Panel Taktis
The Tactical Assault Panel (TAP) replaces the battle load carrier (FLC). This is a bib-like chest rig that can be used alone or mounted on the Outer Float Vest System or a Better Outboard Carrier. TAP is covered with footprint and PALS storage for eight rifle magazines (six 5.56 magazines two 7:62 NATO magazines or eight 5.56 magazines).
Rucksack
MOLLE 2 Rucksack and Rucksack Frame has a SJ webbing net sewn in places to allow additional pockets. The Assault package is currently being removed for a larger medium sized backpack.
Bladder hydration
Plastics 100Ã,Â, USÃ, flÃ, oz (3.0Ã, l) bladder hydration to supplement 1 US qt (0.95Ã, l) and 5Ã, USÃ, qt (4.7Ã, l) canteen for on-the-go hydration.
Modular Bag
The pockets of various utilities that can be attached wherever there are PALS webbing. One of its kind is the "conservation pouch", which holds three MRE. MOLLE bags are commonly used to carry ammunition, gas masks, batons, flares, grenades, handcuffs and pepper spray, and special bags including compatible MOLLE gun holders, hydration bags and utility pockets. These bags are usually secured through the use of straps, alice clips or speedclips.

MOLLE and PALS
The term MOLLE is used not only to describe the special system produced by the Special Defense System, but also in turn to describe in general all load bearing systems and subsystems that utilize PALS (Pouch Attachment Ladder System) webbing for modular pouch attachments (although MOLLE belongs Natick Labs, mostly using MOLLE and PALS interchangeably). Derivatives based on the MOLLE attachment method (such as the MALICE Tactical Tailor clip system) have also been developed. Any system that uses modular attachment methods and can be used with a common problem MOLLE component of the AS is often considered "MOLLE-compatible" or called the "MOLLE" system. Increasingly, non-military manufacturers incorporate MOLLE technology into outdoor equipment.
There are three common attachment modes in the MOLLE arena; "Natick Snap", which uses a polyethlyene reinforced woven strap with snap 'pushthedot' for security; polymer "Malice" clip, developed by Tailor Tailor as an alternative to the Natick Snap concept, which weaves like a Natick Snap but ends in a semi permanent closure that requires a screwdriver or other flat-pointed object to break away; and various attachments falling into the category of "Weave & amp; Tuck", where the end of the rope is interleaved inserted into the backing item after being mounted on a vest or pack (Paraclete's SofStrap and Spec Ops Brand hybrid accessories).
The PALS grid consists of a horizontal line 1Ã, in (2.5Ã, cm) webbing, spaced 1Ã, separately, and attached to the backing at 1.5Ã, in (3.8Ã, cm) intervals.
Evolution and criticism
The MOLLE system was introduced in 1997. However, it saw no widespread problem until after the 11 September 2001 attacks and was used by US troops serving in Afghanistan and, later, Iraq. Initial criticism of the MOLLE system arose, especially from the Army. Many of these criticisms center on packets and load-sustainability frames, because the external plastic framework is too fragile and vulnerable to rupture in the field (due to reduced), that the zipper has a tendency to explode when fully charged, and that the pack strap is less long enough to used with large body armor. Furthermore, the first generation of this system utilizes spherical & amp; the socket interface between the frame and the rucksack belt (which in itself forms the waist belt of the MOLLE vest). This interface method causes many lower back injuries because the ball (attached to the frame) missing the socket interface on the waist belt and impacts the user's body. The subsequent redesign of SDS MOLLE causes the removal of this feature, and thus the vests (FLC) and wrinkles/frames are separate non-integral items.
