The NATO Water Bottle and Mug is a durable heavy duty plastic 1L capacity water bottle and heavy duty plastic 0.5L (1pint) capacity mug. The NATO Water Bottle and Mug is made of High Density Poly Ethylene (HDPE), NOT PVC.

The plastic mug is designed to fit on the NATO Water Bottle forming a single unit. This high quality canteen is NATO issue and is as seen on Discovery Channel's hit survival show with Bear Grylls.

The NATO Water Bottle (Canteen) is NATO Approved and Issued equipment. It carries NSN 8465-99-973-6972.

The NATO Water Bottle will accept the Stainless Steel Crusader Cup which will in turn accept the Crusader Cooking Unit, thus making one integral unit. We call this the Crusader Integral Survival Unit and also includes the Crusader Cup Lid and Crusader Cup Holder.

The Zulu NATO Water Bottle Holder by Best Glide ASE is Made in the USA and was designed to carry the entire Crusader Survival System, however, it will also carry the NATO Water Bottle and Mug by itself with room to spare.
