Abstract
This article explores the use of unmanned systems for evacuating wounded personnel from the battlefield. It focuses on conclusions drawn from conventional medical evacuation methods, particularly when wounded soldiers are still in the enemy’s operational zone, following the principles of Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC). Then, general conditions of the injured were determined, which would require evacuation to a safe zone. This allowed us to define the critical capabilities needed for unmanned systems to perform these tasks. The ability of the unmanned system to pick up an injured person who is unconscious and unable to cooperate was identified as crucial. In the further part of the work, existing unmanned systems intended for rescue tasks were collected and critically analysed.
