EPa "Typ I" vs. (advanced) "Typ 1"

[housil]

For ~10 years we (German Army "Bundeswehr") had their new EPas Typ 1 -19.

In 2012 EPas now changed from Roman number "Typ I, II, III..." to now Arabic numbers and with their numbers they also changed the contents and what I have heard to now 12 different EPas.

So what is new/different?

New numbers

it´s bigger

It weights a little more

Typ I as you know it

The new Typ 1 with new pouches

Typ I entrees

Typ 1 different entrees

Typ I pate + marmelade

Typ 1 still the same amount

Typ I satchets

Typ 1, note much more sugar now (8 satches), just one butter replacment but now a cereal bar

Typ I canned bread, crackers ("armor sheets"), "snack" (either fruit salad or semolina)

Typ 1, still canned bread, just different labeling, new crackers, no snack anymore

These are now brand new in the EPas:

Muesli and a dessert creme

Also new beverages and a cappuccino

They come also now with (some) new entrees. Maybe I´ll get a new Typ 3 case soon. They have as entree Spiralnudeln in Hackfleischsoße (noodles in Bolognese sauce) and Erbseneintopf mit Mettwürstchen (Pea stew with "mettwurst")

They both look good, where can I get one for less than $80?

Great info & pics! I am anticipating a new Type myself. I think it's Typ 8 that has currywurst....I'd kill someone for that LOL! Curry wurst mit spatzle unt salat mit Bier was my favorite meal at the Unteroffizer/ Feldwebel club
