The Eagle Bat accommodates an emergency doctor, rescue assistant and a driver / paramedic, allowing patient transport and emergency treatment.

The vehicles will replace existing unprotected vehicles of the German Armed Forces for providing a very high level of protection against ballistic threats, mines, and improvised explosive devices (IEDs).
