A litter staged back at the vehicle or aid station isn't there when the casualty drops. Getting it to the point of wounding means a medic has to carry it — without giving up the ability to fight or move.
How does a medic carry a litter on target without losing mobility?
The Talon II Carrier puts the litter on the medic's back. It accommodates all NAR quad-fold platforms — Talon®, T3, and Medevac — in a single design with no litter-specific inserts, transitioning from compact collapsed carry to expanded litter transport. Solution-dyed 500D CORDURA® gives extreme abrasion resistance; Ghillie-Tex® IR-reduction hardware minimizes thermal and near-infrared detection where signature management is mission-critical. Thin back-plates keep the loaded profile low for movement under fire and confined-space work; non-slip adjustable shoulder straps hold position under dynamic carry; a drain hole sheds water during wet or amphibious ops; and MOLLE-style exterior webbing turns the carrier into a modular load platform. A top handle adds single-hand grab-and-go, team handoff, or vehicle stowage. At 1 lb 7.3 oz, the carrier is a minimal premium against organic litter capability.
