UPDATE it served me well for 7 years but has now moved to VT and a new owner, it will be used for Mil Sim. Added info on last page.
My former Navy TFK-250 (tactical field kitchen) finally came home yesterday. It has been stashed at a friends house in Arkansas since I got it off GSA. I have owned a MKT and a KCLFF and this thing makes them look like Flintstones cooking, no offense to fellow MKT owners. It has been on Navy storage, DRMO and GSA lots for the last several years so I knew it was going to need some cleaning. I left it at work to take advantage of free Hotsy pressure washer. Power washed it inside and out. Only down side is the bottom of the roof frame over each wheel has rusted but should be a easy fix as it is 2" thin wall square tubing.
It sets up and is ready for lighting the fires in about 5 mins. Unhitch, set the brake, put down the chocks, each corner has a built in leveling jack & a bubble level on the tongue. Undo three straps on each corner, grab the middle of each side and start to lift, the gas shocks are so strong it leaves your hand and goes to the full horizontal position. Front has two 40 gallon pressure pot cookers & a 7.4 gal tea maker(water heater) the rear has two 14 gal pressure fryers cookers, two ovens and another tea maker. Each cooker has it own multifuel burner which are kinda like a cross between a MBU and a M2, no electrons needed. It came with 2 manual sets, 4 baskets for the big cookers, pans for the ovens, complete tool and repair kit, fire ext, box of spare bulbs, paddle, dipper and whisk the size of a 32 Louieville slugger. Missing the first aid kit & English manuals. Surface is 37" off the ground, perfect counter height. Germans make great field kitchens! If anybody has a English manual let me know.
