A simple and reliable twenty person field camp tent for 4-season use. Stove compatible, as all of our field camp tents. The Savotta FDF 20 is the commercial version of the Finnish Defence Forces’ platoon-size tent.
Savottas field camp tents are made for hard, all-year use in our Nordic climate. Savotta has been making military tents for the Finnish Defence Forces since the 1960’s, so they know a thing or two about this sort of stuff. These are not fancy, these are simple, reliable, easy to use and robust, designed for demanding use in very demanding conditions.
As very user-friendly and reliable these are also great for all sorts of professional and recreational use. Simplicity and robustness are natural results of the military origins of these tents. In military use tents like these need to be easy to use, in the dark, in the rain, in deep freezing snow. And above all reliable and repairable in the field if necessary.
Throughout the decades Savotta field camp tents have gained a solid reputation here in our native Finland. Here these are commonly used by hunting parties, film crews, scout groups, outdoor event organizers and of course just for plain fun camping. Although not suitable for on-foot carry for long distances these are still very much portable and easy to transport by car, quad or snowmobile, or even packed into an ahkio (except for the HQ which is a bit too big to really fit in an ahkio).
Although originally designed for military use, and sized accordingly, these are of course useable in many different ways. With less than the maximum occupancy you have more room for comfort, and the taller variants (JSP and HQ) are perfect for field offices complete with chairs and tables. These are really just great, reliable partners where ever you need a warm, dry and clean home-away-from-home for a group of people.
