NATO Type Shelter
NATO-I Shelter
Designed in accordance with North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) standards, NATO-I shelters are compact and robust mobile platforms developed for the safe transport and rapid deployment of military electronic systems in the field. They provide suitable infrastructure for the integration of critical equipment such as radar, communications, command and control, and sensor systems, and ensure reliable operation in challenging environmental conditions.

Overview
NATO-I Shelter is the entry-size tactical shelter defined in the NATO inventory. With a compact interior volume and small footprint, it is designed for applications typically housing 2 to 4 personnel or a limited number of electronic equipment racks. The Ozben Defence NATO-I platform is manufactured within the NATO STANAG 2413 framework, with interfaces and transport compatibility that support interoperability with allied forces.
Key Features
- Compact interior volume — Approximately 10 to 15 m³, for small teams and limited equipment.
- Sandwich-panel structure — Corrosion-resistant outer skin, low-thermal-conductivity core.
- NATO-compatible interfaces — Corner castings, lifting hooks and floor tie-down points are compatible with NATO inventory vehicles and trailers.
- Integrated HVAC — Cooling and heating package for interior climate control.
- Sealing and optional OZFIL — Positive-pressure CBRN collective protection mode.
- OZLUX lighting — Normal and tactical (blackout) modes.
Construction
The shell is built from sandwich panels, with door and window interfaces gasket-sealed. Cable penetrations are terminated with sealed gland sets. The floor is designed for personnel loads and limited equipment; an optional seismic isolation package protects sensitive electronics. Transport is configurable for a ground vehicle, trailer or helicopter underslung load.
International Standards
- NATO STANAG 2413 — Mobile shelter design and transport requirements.
- NATO STANAG 4447 — Optional CBRN-protected configuration.
- MIL-STD-810H — Environmental endurance (vibration, shock, temperature, humidity).
- MIL-STD-461G — Electromagnetic compatibility.
Applications
- Small-team command and control post.
- Communications and signals intelligence cabin.
- Field surveillance and forward observation team cabin.
- Auxiliary electronics and radar support cabin.
- Storage, workshop and small technical service units.
Configuration and RFQ
Final dimensions, HVAC capacity and integrated subsystems are defined per project based on the user's mission profile, transport platform and equipment to be integrated. The Özben engineering team acts as a single point of contact through design, production and site acceptance for the NATO-I platform. To submit a detailed RFQ, please contact our engineering team.
