New year, new opportunities!
Starting 2024 off strong with a new contract. With the Bundeswehr no less!
LANCO was awarded a new framework agreement by the Bundeswehr. We will be the proud suppliers of the Einheitszelt type II legacy shelter, already in use by the German armed forces since the 1990s.
The Einheitszelt II (EHZ II), or multi-purpose tent (MPT II), is in some ways similar to our RDT exoskeleton frame shelters, while in other details to our INNOVA shelters. These shelters are mostly preferred by our defense and command posts customers. They are robust, only need a minimum of ground preparation, they adapt well to the terrain and the fabric is in accordance with defense standards. Another important benefit of these ranges of shelter is that they are perfectly fit for long-term deployment in harsh environments.
The Einheitszelt II is designed to be versatile, durable and easily deployable. It is an essential part of military infrastructure, providing shelter for personnel and equipment during field operations. It will be equipped with modular rigid floors and packed in olive green metal racks thus increasing the deployment efficiency.
The modular design ensures flexibility based on the specific needs of the mission, and use in all climate zones. The basic unit consists of 3 sections, 20.67 x 24.28 ft, and it can be extended in 7.87 ft steps. The assembly doesn't require any tools and it needs around 3-4 people. As far as the resistance to agents is concerned, the EHZ II can stand winds of 74.56 mph and a snow load of 10.24 lbs/ft².
Germany is home to one of the most advanced militaries in the world, as far as the equipment quality is concerned. We are more than happy to deliver nothing less and surpass their standards. The framework agreement that LANCO was recently awarded covers the supply of 200 Einheitszelt II shelters.
