Description
When a dismounted squad, separated from MEDEVAC assets, suffers casualties, the squad executes manual CASEVAC to a Casualty Collection Point (CCP). This endangers both casualty and evacuator. In this scenario, using the Squad-Multipurpose Equipment Transport (S-MET) unmanned ground vehicle to support CASEVAC can save lives. To make this possible, the S-MET will need to be equipped for this secondary function.
