The 9.5t vehicles have been developed, tested and manufactured by GDELS in close cooperation with other German companies.
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).
