The Novator 2S armored medical evacuation vehicle is already in serial production and is being delivered to combat units.
This was reported by the company Ukrainian Armored Vehicles, which introduced the armored vehicle at the end of 2024.
The Novator 2S is developed based on the SBA Novator. Its main purpose is the rapid evacuation of wounded from combat zones or emergency situations, providing first aid, and transporting medical personnel. According to the manufacturer, the armored vehicle’s design provides protection for the crew and wounded from gunfire and harmful external factors in any weather conditions and across various terrains.
“The main task of the medical evacuation ‘Novator 2S’ is saving lives. Thanks to its technical specifications, the armored vehicle allows combat medics to reach the most difficult areas and quickly and safely evacuate the wounded. The installation of special medical equipment allows urgent care and stabilization of the wounded directly inside the vehicle,” said Vladyslav Belbas, CEO of Ukrainian Armored Vehicles.
The company noted that the Novator 2S can evacuate six wounded sitting or four lying down. The vehicle is equipped with a built-in place for transporting a lying patient as well as foldable shelves for evacuating wounded in different conditions.
Additionally, there is space to install a defibrillator, ventilator, oxygen system, vital signs monitors, and more. The armored vehicle’s layout allows integration of various medical devices according to the tasks and requirements of specific units.
The Novator 2S ensures rapid evacuation from “hot” zones and provides care en route — thanks to the fixed life-support systems. It also guarantees the safety of medical personnel, the driver, and severely wounded patients even under fire.
