Great video and outing! amazingly I have collected a very similar kit. Nice to see the Savotta Finnish Defense Forces mat in use. It kept me alive for a year in the service. Same exact Carinthia D4 bag for me. And I've just bought the Snugpak SF bivvy in XL size. I'll try that up in the mountains when it gets colder. But based on your comments if it doesn't really work on its own, I can revert back to my Dutch army hooped bivy that's similar to your MSS in this video, being 3-layer goretex laminated.

I have the MSR Windburner which uses the same technology, that is an integrated wind screen and radiant heat burner. Not only do I heat my water efficiently I am able to cook eggs and bacon right on a skillet without burning them. Also after removing the skillet or water pot I use the radiant burner as a local (in well ventilated areas)heater. Warming my hands and face for a couple of minutes because of the infrared energy like hot red coals in a fire to do it. Obviously I figure in how much fuel I want to expend for this function.

So Luke, misread your question, it has a heavy duty fly, probably the heaviest fly I've seen on a tent ever. The inner has very little netting. In fact there is no light leakage at all when looking from the outside, I guess that's a military thing? The whole kit is heavy for a 1 person tent, it's over 3kgs!

New viewer and sub'd. I recently ordered an un-issued TCOP. Not a stealth camper but wanted a tent that wasn't mountaineering orange. When I was in the Marines, we had shelter halves! I intend to mark the "shorter" pole. Next, set it up in the yard and check the seams. Straight forward review. Really looking forward to using this tent. Impressed with your video library.
