Agilite Rescue Device Helping People with Disabilities
When we designed the Agilite Injured Personnel Carrier (IPC) for one-man Combat Medevac we never dreamed that we'd accidentally help brave civilians worldwide to live a better life. First told live to 16 000 people at AIPAC's National Policy conference, hear the incredible story of Kieran Jennings, a 12yr old with Cerebral Palsy and others who discovered the IPC and are using it to defy the odds. We are truly honored.

The IPC has been in theater since 2012 and is used by Tier 1 units as well as The US Marine Corps and numerous other Military, Law Enforcement and Search and Rescue organizations around the world.
As many Tier 1 units operate as a team of four men, if one is injured, by definition they do not have four men for each corner of a litter. The IPC allows them to Medevac using just one man, who can still maintain two hands on his weapon. As many incidents involve ongoing contact with the enemy, putting rifles back into the fight is incredibly important. This is particularly true for to SOF as manpower can be extremely scarce.

It’s wild how far reaching things can be. Just another reason why its so important to get the word out to as many people as possible about products like this, especially anything rescue related. Having an open mind when it comes to medicine can literally save or dramatically change lives.
