Atlas Basic Tactical 8 Person Tent - Blue Label

This is the Tactical MIL version of the Hilleberg Atlas Basic.
MIL Spec Tactical tents and accessories are identical to the standard versions, except some key altered features, designed specifically to be advantageous in a tactical environment.
MIL Spec features include:

• Higher weight and a lower tear strength outer tent fabric than the standard version.
• A light-blocking outer tent
• No reflectors
• Black guy lines
  

Large group tents that are very strong, relatively light, and easy to pitch are difficult to find. The Atlas Basic is all these things and more, since it is both fully free standing as well as also totally modular. The standard Atlas was originally designed for polar scientists needing a mobile research station, but it has been used with great success by any number of users in all conditions and all situations. Mountaineering expeditions have found it a highly reliable, spacious base camp tent; arctic teams have used it both for base camps and on long dog sled journeys; and outfitters and guides leading large groups into remote places have found it ideal for staging and shelter. Any group needing a large, easily portable space, whether for sleeping, first aid stations, briefing areas or the like will find the Atlas MIL and excellent solution.

The Atlas Basic comes with no inner tent or floor, but it can be customized as needed with a variety of optional modules. The Floorless Inner also sleeps eight, and can be paired with the Detachable Floor, which can also be used without the inner tent. External Vestibules can be added to either door, and the Connector can join multiple Atlas tents together.

The Atlas is an outstanding tent for teams needing large sheltered areas for nearly any use, in a variety of terrain or weather conditions.

The MIL version has a light-blocking outer tent, no reflectors and black guy lines, but has a higher weight and a lower tear strength outer tent fabric that the standard version.

Features

• 8 person tent
• Tremendously spacious, very stable and completely modular, the Atlas is the ideal group tent for any situation.
• Separate vent cover protects open vents from snow and rain.
• A combination of pole sleeves and short pole sleeves and clips provide quick & easy pitching.
• Lower vents afford increased air circulation and can also accommodate ducting from forced air heating or cooling units.
• Adjustable roof vents can be closed with snow-proof panels, and are accessible from inside of the tent.
• Multiple guy line points including those on the vent coversafford even greater stability, especially as many of the guy line attachment loops are designed to be wrapped around poles or pole crossing points.
