PRODUCT INFORMATION

North American Rescue · Ultralight Rigid Litter

T3 Lightweight Assault Litter

A quad-fold rigid litter built for assault-element CASEVAC, specified by North American Rescue at 11 lb 13 oz (5.34 kg) and folding to 21" × 8.75" × 7.25" so it rides on the outside of a ruck. The 81" open length is the dimension that matters at the aircraft: it is what allows a UH-60 floor load without repositioning the patient. Four IV attachment points and two securing straps are built in.

Weight is what decides whether a rigid litter goes on the objective or stays on the vehicle. A litter that never leaves the truck immobilizes nobody.

What's Included

A single rigid litter, not a stocked kit. The Talon II Assault Litter Carrier, carry harnesses and all medical supplies are sold separately. Tap a section for what is in the box and how the litter is configured.

Payload conflict — read before fielding: the manufacturer specification block on this listing states 1,200 lb (544.3 kg), while other passages of the same legacy listing stated 600 lb. Both figures are reproduced here rather than reconciled. Confirm the current rated payload directly with North American Rescue before writing this litter into a protocol or exceeding a conservative load.

▾Who Carries It

Special Operations and assault elements that need an organic rigid litter carried on the man rather than staged on a vehicle · SOF and unit medics who need a rigid platform for spinal alignment and stable IV access during movement · Teams interfacing with rotary-wing MEDEVAC where an 81" litter loads directly to the aircraft floor · Confined-space and breach extraction where a quad-folded package passes through a hatch or a breached wall that a full-length litter will not.

A rigid litter supports spinal alignment; it is not by itself a spinal motion restriction protocol. Apply your service's immobilization standard on top of the platform. Stage the litter in its carrier before insertion — a litter unpacked under contact costs time the carrier is designed to give back.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How much does the T3 Lightweight Assault Litter weigh?

The T3 Lightweight Assault Litter weighs 11 lb 13 oz (5.34 kg) — under 12 pounds — making it the lightest rigid litter in the world. North American Rescue achieved this weight through state-of-the-art advanced materials that reduce weight without compromising structural performance, maintaining a 1,200 lb (544.3 kg) payload capacity.

Does the T3 Litter fit inside a UH-60 helicopter?

Yes. The T3 was specifically designed with an 81-inch open length that enables floor loading on a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter. This length matches the floor-loading requirement without requiring patient repositioning during transfer from ground CASEVAC to rotary-wing MEDEVAC, reducing time-to-evacuation in the most critical phase of care.

What is the payload capacity of the T3 Litter?

The T3 Lightweight Assault Litter is rated to a 1,200 lb (544.3 kg) payload. Despite its sub-12-pound weight, the structural integrity is maintained at a level that handles patients of any size, multi-rescuer loading, and the dynamic forces experienced during helicopter loading and ground movement over rough terrain.

Who is the T3 Litter designed for?

The T3 was designed specifically for Special Operations Forces (SOF) where every pound of carried equipment has a direct operational impact. It is appropriate for Ranger, SF, SEAL, and MARSOC units, as well as any light infantry or rapid reaction force where litter weight must be minimized while maintaining full CASEVAC capability. It is also used by TCCC-trained medics who accompany assault elements.

Does the T3 Litter have IV attachment points for en-route care?

Yes. The T3 Lightweight Assault Litter includes 4 IV attachment points, enabling fluid administration during Tactical Evacuation Care (TACEVAC). This allows medics to continue resuscitation — including IV or IO fluid delivery — while the patient is being transported on the litter, which is a standard of care requirement during the TACEVAC phase of TCCC.

Is the T3 Lightweight Assault Litter CoTCCC-recommended?

Rigid litter capability is consistent with CoTCCC TACEVAC guidelines. The T3 is widely used in CoTCCC-aligned training programs and fielded by U.S. and allied military units. Confirm current fielding status with your unit medical officer.

What carriers are compatible with the T3 litter?

The T3 is compatible with the NAR Talon II Assault Litter Carrier, which is designed to accommodate all NAR quad-fold platforms including the T3, TALON II 90C, and Medevac litter. No litter-specific inserts are required.

Does the T3 meet Safe-to-Fly certification?

Yes. The T3 Lightweight Assault Litter is Safe-to-Fly rated, making it compatible with rotary-wing MEDEVAC platforms including the UH-60 Black Hawk. Confirm current certification documentation with North American Rescue for specific aircraft requirements.

What is the load rating of the T3?

The T3 is rated to 600 lb, sufficient for all casualty weights with standard combat kit. This rating applies to a properly assembled litter on a flat carry — consult NAR technical documentation for dynamic load scenarios.

Is there an NSN for the T3 Litter?

Contact MED-TAC International or North American Rescue for current NSN and CAGE code for government and DLA procurement of the T3 Lightweight Assault Litter.
