That can be two PFC Panels, a PFC Panel plus a NARCO Panel, or a panel plus accessory panels and mesh pouches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:12px 0 6px;font-weight:700;\"\u003eQ: Will it hold a NARCO Panel?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 10px;\"\u003eA: Yes. The NARCO Panel is physically smaller than the interior face, so it mounts with room left over. Running a full PFC board on one side and a NARCO board on the other is a common configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:12px 0 6px;font-weight:700;\"\u003eQ: Is it waterproof?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 10px;\"\u003eA: The 420D TPU shell is water-resistant and built to shed weather and abrasion. Treat it as weather protection, not a submersion seal. For temperature- or moisture-sensitive drugs, nest a sealed container inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:12px 0 6px;font-weight:700;\"\u003eQ: Will the MOLLE rear mount to a plate carrier cummerbund?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 10px;\"\u003eA: Physically yes, on any standard PALS field. Whether an 11 × 7 in pouch belongs on your cummerbund is a loadout decision — most people run this on a ruck, a med bag, or a vehicle panel rather than on the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:12px 0 6px;font-weight:700;\"\u003eQ: Can I use it without a panel at all?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 10px;\"\u003eA: You can, but you are paying for an interior loop system you are not using.
