Indian Army mulling drone-based ambulances for battle casualties

Theย Indianย Armyย isย apparentlyย investigatingย theย useย ofย cargoย dronesย asย short-rangeย airย ambulancesย toย quicklyย removeย woundedย soldiersย fromย theย battlefield,ย whichย isย aย ground-breakingย initiative.

Aย droneย isย seenย beingย usedย toย conveyย aย stretcherโ€”possiblyย holdingย aย dummyโ€”acrossย aย makeshiftย battlegroundย inย aย widelyย sharedย socialย mediaย photo released by the Indian Army.

Droneย technologyย hasย enormousย promiseย forย medicalย evacuation. Dronesย canย reachย difficult-to-reachย areasย thatย conventionalย ambulancesย cannot,ย greatlyย speedingย upย responseย timesย andย possiblyย savingย lives. Dronesย canย alsoย functionย inย dangerousย settings,ย reducingย theย riskย toย rescueย workers.

Theย Indianย Army is conducting trials ofย drone-basedย airย ambulances inย lineย withย itsย continuousย endeavorsย toย updateย itsย arsenalย andย takeย useย ofย newย technologiesย toย improveย soldierย safetyย andย operationalย effectiveness.

Althoughย theย technologyย isย stillย inย itsย earlyย phasesย ofย research,ย itsย effectiveย applicationย mightย transformย medicalย careย onย theย battlefieldย andย establishย newย benchmarksย forย militaryย medicalย evacuationย missionsย acrossย theย globe.
