Survival Tents

Constructed of advanced fabrics, good quality survival tents are a life saver. They repel water and stop the strongest winds, yet they allow humidity to escape out and still keep heat in. They are in fact very warm, with an average human's body temperature able to raise a two person tent to a shirt-sleeve temperature in about thirty minutes if the outside temperature is abut -10 degrees standard. Fairly strong, the best use a form of memory-flex tubing for structural support. Being only a few millimeters thick, they fold into a compact package (a two person tent with poles folds into a 10x7x5cm, 450 gram form). They all are treated to resist fire and fungal/microbial growth.

For those who travel extra light, there are several models of "bivy bags" available, which are little more than sleeping bag covers. These lack any form of support, and fold into a 3x10cm tube. These are standard issue to Scout, Snow and Sandtroopers.
