RC flying stretcher is a medical evacuation aerial vehicle developed by Israel and recommended to be used in the battlefield to quickly carry those injured soldiers away and free them from danger. This flying vehicle is equipped with a fan which allows it to take off vertically like a helicopter.

It’s even able to take off vertically in a tighter area than a helicopter can manage. This flying ambulance is able to roll around on its wheels, flying to areas that are unreachable by normal ambulances. It can load up to four patients and it has all the necessary on-board medical facilities for the patients. And the best is it manages to lift up to 10,000 feet and stay aloft for three hours when it travels to and from the hospital.

The flying stretcher needs no pilot, it is remotely controlled by operators. Besides for military use, this hovering ambulance is best used in any kind of terrain, especially those where helicopter and ambulance cannot reach for quickly rescuing injured victims.
