NATO and Ukraine Are Testing New Armor to Make Battlefield Evacuation Work

Original version ·

Trying to evacuate wounded soldiers when the sky is crawling with FPV drones is borderline suicidal, so NATO and Ukraine are finally teaming up to build actual tech solutions.

When cheap suicide drones hunt literally anything on wheels, traditional armored ambulances turn into sitting ducks. The joint NATO-Ukraine center JATEC teamed up with NATO's innovation arm DIANA to find tech that actually keeps tactical vehicles alive.

They have already picked the most promising solutions and are shipping them to test ranges in Poland and other allied countries. Standard medical evacuation simply cannot happen anymore without specialized active and passive protection against drone swarms.

Real frontline combat data is finally replacing outdated peacetime doctrines on how to survive modern warfare.
