Silva Competitor Cards

The Silva 4 Militaire is practically the same as the Expedition 4, but graduated in miles rather than degrees as favoured by the armed forces. It features a full-sized base plate, magnifier and rubber feet for precision map work. Specifically designed for use by the British military, the base plate features 1:25k, 1:50k and 1:40k roamer scales, as well as centimetre and inch rulers. The needle and cardinal points feature a luminous compound which is activated by daylight and will maintain brightness for up to 4 hours in darkness. The Militaire 4 is a classic compass used by NATO forces around the world.

This classically styled compass is ideal for hiking, walking, backpacking, orienteering and mountaineering, who wish to navigate using a map when outdoors in the hills/ mountains. Fitted with a ruled edge to measure distances easily and accurately and made a lightweight, durable base-plate this compass can withstand rigorous and frequent use outdoors.
