R.A.C.E. (Rapid Access Casualty Extraction) System

The R.A.C.E. (Rapid Access Casualty Extraction) System from North American Rescue was designed after discussions & training with units from all branches of the DoD. This lightweight, multiple use casualty evacuation system allows for the four key areas of Tactical Evacuation (Ascend, Descend, Hoist, and Lower), a capability gap found in the current equipment issued.

It's front pocket allows for the optional storage of helmet and rope guard while it's rope compartment features two-bar-tacked internal webbing loops for rope ends. Multiple carriage options include 4 Point, D-ring configurable modified side and/or backpack carry-style adjustable strap.
