xBCB Crusader Cooking System MK II Complete 6 Piece Kit with NATO Canteen
A complete 6-piece cooking system designed for future combat soldier requirements. The BCB Crusader MK II features hard-anodised aluminium construction that is lighter, larger, and faster than the MK I. Boils 500ml in 5.5 minutes using Fire Dragon fuel. Includes Crusader Cooker II, Crusader Cup II, NATO Osprey canteen and mug, BCB flint and striker, and pouch in Black or Multicam.
Hard-Anodised Aluminium Construction for Easy Cleaning
The hard-anodised aluminium finish creates a surface that is easier to clean than bare aluminium. Food residue wipes away more easily, and the anodised layer resists staining. The coating provides increased corrosion resistance compared to bare aluminium.
Lighter Larger and Faster Than MK I Crusader
The MK II features high-grade aluminium construction that is lighter than the stainless steel MK I. The larger capacity provides more cooking volume for solo camping. The aluminium heats faster than stainless steel, contributing to quick boil times.
Fast Boil Time of 5.5 Minutes with Fire Dragon Fuel
The system boils 500ml of water in approximately 5.5 minutes using Fire Dragon fuel. This fast boil time reduces fuel consumption and waiting time. The efficient heat transfer from the aluminium construction and cooker design contribute to quick boil times.
Complete 6 Piece System with NATO Canteen and Fire Starter
The system includes Crusader Cooker II, Crusader Cup II, NATO Osprey canteen and mug, BCB flint and striker for fire starting, and carry pouch. This complete package provides everything needed for solo camping cooking, water carrying, and fire starting. The NATO canteen integrates with British Military equipment.
BCB Flint and Striker for Reliable Fire Starting
The BCB flint and striker provides reliable fire starting in all weather conditions. This fire starter works when wet, making it valuable for UK weather. The flint and striker combination creates sparks to ignite Fire Dragon fuel.
Carry Pouch in Black or Multicam
The carry pouch keeps the entire system organized and protected. Available in Black or Multicam camouflage pattern, the pouch provides convenient storage and transport. The pouch design keeps all components together for easy packing.
Designed for Future Combat Soldier Requirements
