The Improved Combat Shelter is the next generation one soldier combat shelter currently
being used by the U.S. military. This next generation shelter is made of lightweight,
durable, flame resistant rip stop nylon.
The ICS is a versatile, man-portable, shelter system for one person. The ICS tent consists of a
shelter body, an attachable rain fly (provides a waterproof shelter and forms a shelter storage
vestibule, it also can function separately as a hooch), support poles, ground stakes, carry bag,
and a field repair kit. The ICS is a single-storage vestibule, one-person size, double-walled, freestanding shelter that strikes easily. The ICS provides protection from rain, wind, and snow in
climates ranging from basic cold through tropical hot without leaking or collapsing. The shelter
is made with flame resistant materials.

If there's a bad smell, in addition to cleaning and airing out, try putting it in a freezer for a few days. I did and that with a backpack I had and that killed the bacteria making the smell.

Hi Tom, Happy New Year to you! I'd never noticed this video on your channel before. I'm a bit of a tent geek and have never heard of this one so it was fascinating to see. It looks a bit odd with only one vestibule but I'm guessing they designed it that way for faster exit in an emergency. Well done and thank you! 73 from Tracy VE3TWM.

Thank you! That's an old video where I wasn't sure where the channel was going. Wanted to do an outdoors channel, but it became more popular with ham radio. Love that tent, but it's HOT in the summer!

@Ron_C 6 лет назад

Ha! I have this tent! Not sure why I didn't see this in your video list previously! It's a neat system.

@hamradiocq 6 лет назад

That is NOT a summer tent. I found out the hard way. : )

@Ron_C 6 лет назад

Yeah, that rain fly is heavy and hugs that tent well. Tarp camping is good for summer.

@clovenbeast5183 2 года назад

Bad ass cuz that's exactly the combination I was thinking about doing. I will be spending some time by the creek lol unfortunately

ics improved combat shelter tent rocks

@IMDARKFIRE007 3 года назад

Mine stinks to HIGH heaven and ALL the way back down. It's not musk either, which is what I expected with surplus. It wasn't used but maybe once, and since has been packed bathing in plastic smell. I noticed you missed a step, that loop in the center up top is for the poles...give you an extra inch or so in head room.

@hamradiocq 3 года назад

Yeah they smell.

@beararms6945 3 месяца назад

Dryer sheets packed into the tent ,roll it loose and let it sit in the sun and then the smell is gone!

@brucedavis1803 4 года назад

Ahhhh! The smell of surplus!

@hamradiocq 4 года назад

Nothing like it!

@stealthandy638 6 лет назад

Morning sir . Sweet tent . Thanks for sharing

@bettersteps 2 года назад

Do you know how this tent holds up in extreme wind, very cold/snow conditions? Also, is it possible to use two poles for the outside cover?

@dbf_91 2 года назад

I have the same tent and used it in heavy rain for camping trips. It can also take guy out lines so wind won't be an issue. I took it to every field exercise as well. This thing is bomb proof.

@beararms6945 3 месяца назад

I use mine in February in Pennsylvania all the time, it can handle heavy wet snow and crazy 60mph wind like a champ

@vincentvenezia1751 3 года назад

I got one off eBay it's ok it was stickying together dam near rip but not to bad

@everwharesismine 6 лет назад

It would have made a world of difference if they put a screen on the back door for cross breeze.... Ive camo painted mine, I hate the ACU camo...

@kimhansen5424 6 лет назад

everwharesismine would love to see a picture of that.

@everwharesismine 6 лет назад

how do I include pictures?

@kimhansen5424 6 лет назад

I don't know. Maybe you could make a video about it? I just bought this tent and im considering dyeing or painting the fly.

@everwharesismine 6 лет назад

The paint doesn't effect the water proofing... No mold if u let any tent dry property... I used krylons camo paint..I'm sure over time the paint my chip...but it turned well....

@bloodstriper3649 4 года назад

Good showing and loved that cool, outdoorsy music!

@hamradiocq 4 года назад

Thanks Blood! Old video of mine.

@joshm5816 4 года назад

Have you ever compared this tent to the multicam litefighter tent? Just curious as I have the improved combat shelter and it's a beast. Never leaks works great.

@hamradiocq 4 года назад

Hey Josh, never heard of that tent.

@abortionIzmurder 6 лет назад

That smell is testosterone.... ! Man up! Lol

@tom_olofsson 4 года назад

Could be cortisol too - - if it was used in battle.

@tom_olofsson 4 года назад

or urine if it was a heavy battle.

@beararms6945 3 месяца назад

If it's urine ya smell it was owned by a Democrat 😂

@diegoornelas3394 4 года назад

What are the dimensions are inside

@hamradiocq 4 года назад

Small, by smaller, by tiny.

@beararms6945 3 месяца назад

The ORC is 96 long 40 wide and 32 high on the low setting of the poles 36 on the high setting. Each corner has 2 options for the height and neither hole for the bottom of the poles are for stakes . This tent is made for rack time not camping 😂so keep thst in mind

@HamRadioNewb 3 года назад

Was this a unused surplus or used surplus? Curious if that might help me avoid the smell issue

@hamradiocq 3 года назад

I'm not sure anymore, but used likely

@HamRadioNewb 3 года назад

Thanks, first video I've seen of yours but it was really well done, I'll be sure to check out some more in the future! 73s!

@philipedwards8963 7 лет назад

Did you manage to get rid of the smell inside the tent? Mine has just arrived and it has the same smell!!

@hamradiocq 7 лет назад

Philip Edwards it kind of gets better after you leave it setup after a while. you can also wash it softly in a bath tub and let it dry thoroughly. thanks for the comment

@beararms6945 3 месяца назад

Lol you want to get rid of the smell just throw in dryer sheets and roll it up loose and sit her in the sun
