I have recently seen three new kits on BCB's web site.<br>The first been the military survival kit which appears to be a more comprehensive version of the combat kit.<br>The second kit is the ultimate survival kit which comes in a slightly larger tin with more supplies.<br>The third kit is the air crew survival go pack which was designed for the RAF. has any one got any experiance with these kits and will you be doing any reviews of them?<br>

We have a review of the pocket BCB kit. This should give an idea of the general quality of their units. If you are in immediate need, or unable to assemble your own unit they are a fair value.
