SCP AMTF Nu-7 Cosplay - Assault Pack Maneuvers

Depicted here is the theoretical appearance of a conventionally armed AMTF Nu-7 operative during assault pack maneuvers. While most missions undertaken by Nu-7 revolve around direct action light fighter operations with constant logistical support from SCP Foundation elements, there are times where Nu-7 must operate alone without any form of logistical support. Examples include anomalous exploration missions or deep infiltration into enemy territory that require the unit to remain within the working area for extended periods of time without support. In such a case the standard light fighter loadout so commonly seen would not be sufficient in terms of individual sustainment. The longer the unit stays on the ground without support, the more sustainment equipment they will need to survive. This includes water, food, medical supplies, ammunition, spare batteries, and spare clothing as well as additional survival equipment like water filtration and purification, entrenching tools, toiletries, and shelter. Most missions that Nu-7 will perform that aren’t 24 hours or less will generally take place within two days and two nights. As such, this operative is equipped with a 48 hour assault pack, specifically the Eagle Industries SOF 50L Version 1 Assault Pack Prototype. An assault pack will provide the aforementioned sustainment equipment for a 48 hour mission comfortably within its interior. It can be worn over the operative’s fighting kit, however the zip-on pack panel and external belt must be removed and placed in and on the pack before it can be worn. This is because the pack utilizes a ruck style pack frame and hip belt to allow the wearer to fit the pack exactly to their liking. This allows for the operative to continue to wear their plate carrier and be able to fight while wearing their assault pack if the situation demands it.

In a 48 hour mission scenario, generally speaking once the element is dropped off at the infil location, they then move to a secondary location where they drop off their sustainment kit. This is where they will resupply and sleep in shelter if need be. Once the element drops off their assault pack, they reequip their zip-on pack panel and belt and continue with the mission. Once the objective is complete they can resupply at their assault pack drop off point and rest or move onto the secondary objective. In reality there are several methods of utilizing an assault pack during a mission, what such a loadout offers is the flexibility needed to survive within the working area for 48 hours.

During exploration missions, it may not be necessary to wear full kit when performing reconnaissance. The operative wears a boonie hat in experimental UCP-D camouflage. As his standard active hearing protection is mounted on his helmet, he wears 3M Combat Arms Ear Plugs in this scenario. He is equipped with an L3 M24 7×28 Binocular with an ARD, or Anti-Reflective Device, mounted at the front. This is otherwise known as a killflash and it prevents the sun from reflecting off the front lens and giving away the user’s position.

During 48 hour missions it may be necessary for the operative to collect water within the working area. To complete this task the Foundation supplies several water purification and filtration methods. The operative is shown currently using a Sawyer Squeeze connected to a Cnoc 3L VectoX Water Container to filter water into a CamelBak Eddy. He additionally has a Steripen Ultra UV Water Filter and Aqua Research H2Go Chlorine Disinfectant Generator beside him.
