The U.S. Marines Combat Tent was designed to be a free standing, 3 season two-man with plenty of room for gear and 2 Marines to sleep combat ready. The tent is made with a double wall design to keep the weather out and allow air while using the full covered rain fly. A great feature is the reversible color Rainfly with a vestibule adding .20 square feet of extra space to hold gear while also giving you great weather protection.
The tent body is designed as vapor permeable to promote breathability and reduce condensation. The Combat Tent material is very durable and made to take a beating, this is a great tent for the money and made better than commercial ones on the market. Please note that with military contract items, the manufacturer may vary between Diamond, Eureka and Litefighter brands but all are made to the same military specs.
