Saab’s mission is to keep people and society safe. One approach is to save lives on the battlefield. With Saab’s deployable health care solutions, life saving actions can be made where it really matters. By utilising the latest technologies, wounded soldiers can be treated in a more effective and mobile way than ever before, closer to the incident.

The Latvian National Armed Forces (LNAF) are one of the latest users of Saab’s deployable health care solutions. The interest grew when they conducted miltary exercises together with the Swedish Armed Forces. Today they are one of the latest customers of the solution and have used it successfully in exercises with both Denmark and Sweden.

“In order to fulfil the medical support tasks of the LNAF, we had a number of high-profile requirements, for example high self-sufficiency, portability and deployability. In cooperation with Saab’s medical designers, a flexible and creative partnership was formed.This cooperation has resulted in a modern deployable health care solution with the most modern medical equipment. The certified and tested equipment fully meets the requirements of LNAF,” says Lieutenant Colonel MD Normunds Vaivads, Latvia National Armed Forces Joint HQ MED Service Chief Medical Officer (Surgeon General).
