Marshall Aerospace and Defence Group (Marshall ADG) has been contracted to deliver pallet based Medical Evacuation Systems (four off Patient Treatment Unit [PTU] and two off Medical Support Pallet [MSP]) to be used primarily on board the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) C-130 HERCULES transport aircraft. The four PTUs will provide the Royal Netherlands Air Force with a capability for evacuating patients in need of care. Additionally two pallets will be provided for the transportation of medical supplies.

The RNLAF C-130 MEDEVAC system will contribute to saving lives by transporting patients quickly and safely (the system is suited for military operations, humanitarian aid and disaster relief operations). The systems will provide the Defence Medical operator with the most up-to-date,modern and innovative facilities to provide the best possible care for patients.

Marshall ADG is the prime contractor working with Spectrum Aeromed, Martin Baker, Nodin Aviation and Van Riemsdijk Rotterdam to deliver the MEDEVAC systems to the Royal Netherlands Air Force. The baseline has been Nodin Aviation’s innovative design, enabling all companies to integrate the different components into a lifesaving system.
