The systems prime mover is the
MTVR.
The system is being fielded with
a 10Kw 60Hz generator (TAMCN

Designed to feed 500-700 meals,
twice daily.
Requirement
The EFK is the life-cycle
replacement to the Field
Food Service System
(FFSS).
B0891 was purchased by the
Family of Field Feeding
Equipment program for

JSN: Product Improvement
JSN: Scalable Kitchen
JSN: Product Improvement was originated by Natick and received
favorable endorsement from the forum at the (ETRHS) IFC.
UNS: Self-powered TRHS (III MEF) is in progress and could be
considered “product improvement” vs. a newly fielded TAMCN (?). The
UNS should be completed within (30) days.

M59: The fielding message for the ETRHS will direct disposition of any unit
maintained M59 field ranges. And give priority to deploying units.
M2: The fielding message for the ETRHS will direct disposition of any unit
maintained burners. And give priority to deploying units. Units not
receiving the ETRHS are directed to seek internal redistribution of unit
excess PMB Sleds or temp loan of equipment for training evolutions until
fielding of the EFK has reached FOC.
JSN: Scalable Kitchen is still in conceptual stages. All progress on the
proposal will be updated as it becomes available.
Gen I and II Burners: Units were asked to scrub Gen III shortfalls and take every measure to fix internally. No money is POM’ed for new purchases.
Field Equipment Tomorrow?
