Two new products from Accurate Armour have been announced: Military cots and modern Spineboard Spinal Injury Stretchers.

The cots set represents the ‘Cots’ used by many western armies but very much the standard for the U.S. Army since World War 2. Originally made from wood and steel the frame design is unchanged to this day and is also made under licence in the UK (we generally refer to them as ‘Camp Beds’).

From the Vietnam era, Aluminium was used for the frame and a lighter nylon carry bag employed. This set contains three bagged cots, three folded un-bagged cots and three unfolded and set up. All of which may be painted as either the wood or aluminium type depending on era.

The Spineboards are used by many western armies especially in theatres like Iraq and Afghanistan where the bulk of casualties are as a result of Improvised Explosive Devices (IED’s) that often lead to spinal injury.

Initially when deployed the spineboards were bright yellow until a tactical NATO green version was procured. This set contains 4 spineboards and 3 etched brass straps per board.
