How does the TacMed Ultralight Poleless Litter compare to the Phantom Litter?

The Ultralight Poleless Litter shares the same open dimensions (65 × 23 inches), payload capacity (450 lb), grab point count (8), and strap design (1.5-inch nylon friction buckle) as the Phantom® Litter. The key difference is the mount configuration: the Phantom is available in an internal version designed to fit inside body armor systems (Eagle MBAV, SF plate carrier), while the Ultralight is an external-carry platform. Both share the dual-function casualty equipment bag capability.

What is the payload capacity of the Ultralight Poleless Litter?

The Ultralight Poleless Litter is rated to 450 lb (204 kg) and was tested to a 500 lb (227 kg) static load for a 24-hour period without sustaining damage — providing a 50-pound structural safety margin above the rated capacity.

Can the Ultralight Poleless Litter be used as an equipment bag?

Yes. After the casualty is transferred to a standard litter or MEDEVAC platform, the Ultralight Poleless Litter bag can hold the casualty's combat equipment, sensitive items, weapons, and personal effects to prevent loss during evacuation processing. This dual-use design adds utility throughout the casualty care chain.

How compact is the Ultralight Poleless Litter when packed?

Packed, the Ultralight Poleless Litter measures 10 × 7 × 1.5 inches — a form factor roughly the size of a paperback book. This profile is small enough to store in a cargo pocket, attach to MOLLE webbing, or carry inside a day pack, making it suitable for individual soldiers and medical operators who need CASEVAC capability without dedicated litter-carry space.

How many people does it take to use the Ultralight Poleless Litter?

The Ultralight Poleless Litter can be operated by a single person for drag evacuation or by two to four persons for carry configurations. Eight grab points distributed along the litter length provide ergonomic handles for personnel of different heights and allow smooth transitions between carry configurations as more personnel become available to assist.
