Ukrainian new ration of a NATO standard

Post by laughing_man »

The specification of new Ukrainian ration was recognized by the Secretary of State for Defence.
That ration seems to be the modern ration which abolishes canned food and has FRH.
And it was developed as ration of a NATO standard with the help of the foreign adviser.

I translated the contents by google.
1. Biscuits wheat flour
2. Crackers made from wheat and rye flour
3. Ready to eat the first meal (soup with meat or soups)
4. Ready to eat main dish (porridge with meat or vegetables with meat)
5. Instant coffee
6. Tea
7. Sugar
8. Honey is a natural
9. Fruit jam
10. Pepper black ground
11. Sol
12. Plastic disposable spoon
13. Set of paper napkins
14. Set Wet Wipes
It seems to be a single meal.
I think that it is contents more extravagant than the current 24h ration.

If you as ACU (ACU is successor of BDU as uniform design) mean UCP camo pattern you are wrong. Since 2014 shortly after war started Ukrainians started using their own pixelated camouflage that uses 3 colours. Surplus stuff that are used are mostly british MTP, and during the war german Flecktarn, british DPM, french CCE, russian patterns, old ukrainian patterns etc...

Maybe the video material and images in first post are low quality so you don't see the difference ut here's some pictures

Both Ukrainian camo and UCP pants (I doubt it's surplus, it's probably german Miltec or Max-Fuchs knock-off)

According to the UKR Ministry of Defence (in Ukrainian), it seems the troops'll be getting the new rations by the end of the year.

Here's a YouTube link to a short video with an official demonstration at a media briefing held yesterday (5 Oct 2016).
