I think it is obvious that the contractor that wrote the TM from which I quoted made a mistake when listing the weight of the shelter.
The web brochure from Wenzlau Engineering for the S-250 shows the following weight:
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]
Weight:
With EMI kit 762 lbs. min. - 802 lbs. max
Without EMI kit 750 lbs. min. - 790 lbs. max
S-250 - Rugged, Truck Mounted Military Shelter
The TM compares "empty" vs "fully loaded" with a 12 lb difference .. which is obviously bs to anyone who has ever touched, let alone lifted, any military communications equipment.
The entire statement that I copied from the TM regarding weights was incorrect, misstated, backwards, and generally FUBAR. Which is why I showed it as is and then stated IMHO that 800 lbs was a fair estimate for an EMPTY shelter. The radios, racks, etc. add hundreds of lbs.
