Now that footage of the new packs is out, I can post the parts I have I.D.ed from them.
What you're looking at here is a modern ITT Cannon connector and a section of gas mask hose
The hose is most likely Russian. Fabric covered. The Russian hoses do come in green, but I could only find gray when I did my searches. Had to dye it.
The ITT Cannon connector has 3 components:
Plug - PN 192922-1250
Backshell - PN 192922-1310
Receptacle - PN 192922-1190
The receptacle is mounted to a larger aluminum plate that is most likely custom and not part of the connector set up.
The wands are now using the current Neutrik connectors.
Female - PN NAC3FX-W
Male - PN NAC3MX-W
The male connector has the silver button removed and it is installed in the rear handle. The female connector is attached to the loom.
Wands have a new forward grip.
It is a heavily modified AK-47 grip by FAB Defense.
They are now using genuine LC-2 ALICE Frames by North American Manufacturing Company.
I believe the frame pictured above is 100% accurate. The biggest tell being the lack of a plasic insert in the round hole on the sides, and the rounded over edge of the holes. This matches all of the frames I've seen on the new packs.
They are also using genuine LC-2 pads(when not using Haslab). The kidney straps have the yellow striping present on the belt, but not the red.
The shoulder straps have been modified. The quick releases have been removed entirely and there is now a set up with a ladder buckle. It also appears they've combined tubular nylon webbing AND cotton webbing for the lower portion of the straps. Very odd.
The beam line has been replaced by a conduit fitting.
They are Adaptaflex 90° conduit elbows.
PN ASF13/PG9/90 & AWB13
Other things to note:
-Ion arms all appear to still be using the Dale PH-25 with the brass nut(no circle on the end), and Dale RH-25 with no logo. The long resistor on the other side looks like it may be a Sage with the vertical ridges, but I haven't seen good enough reference to tell.
-Still using SMC elbows, unpainted, and the flanged inserts have been removed and replaced with brass inserts to better match the Legris.
-Still using the heatsink seen on the side of the Phoebe pack in Afterlife. Though they are most likely replicas as the supply of real heatsinks was wiped out at Apex by the time these would have been built.
-It appears they have switched to splitless loom for these packs.
Will update this with more info soon!
