The frame

Three systems, one shell.

Every part of AEGIS-1 answers the same question: what does a rescuer need in the ninety seconds before anyone else arrives?

01

Boot jets

Twin vectoring jets in each heel lift a full supply load and one casualty over debris fields no ambulance can cross.

Thrust
9.4 kN
Ceiling
2,400 m
Airspeed
180 km/h
02

Supply bays

Four sealed bays hold blood, airway kit and burn dressings at body temperature for up to 36 hours.

Volume
8.4 L
Bays
4 sealed
Hold
36 h
03

Tri-core reactor

Three shielded arc cells share the load behind a sapphire lens, so a single hit never stops the heart of the frame.

Output
3.1 MW
Cells
3 of 3 live
Shield
Class V

In the field

Two jobs, one frame.

AParamedic

Triage at the point of impact

AEGIS-1 lands where roads end: collapsed stairwells, flooded underpasses, the far side of a fire line. It stabilises before anyone else can reach the scene, then hands a live readout to the incoming crew.

  • Airway, bleed control and burn cover in the first 90 seconds
  • Supplies held at body temperature, sealed against smoke and water
  • Vitals relayed to the clinical lead while the frame is still moving
BProtection

Stand between the storm and the people

The shell is layered for falling masonry, radiant heat and flying debris, and braced by three independent cores. It can wedge a collapsed opening so a rescue team works underneath it while the structure settles.

  • Withstands 900 J impacts without losing the outer plate
  • Braces openings up to 2.4 t while crews pass through
  • Holds a 400 °C radiant load for eleven minutes

Thrust

Ceiling

Airspeed

Fold-flat heels keep the frame stable on the ground; jets ignite only above 40 cm clearance.

02

Supply bays

Four sealed bays hold blood, airway kit and burn dressings at body temperature for up to 36 hours.

Volume
8.4 L
Bays
4 sealed
Hold
36 h

Each hatch opens in 0.4 s and reports its contents to the triage HUD without being opened.

03

Tri-core reactor

Three shielded arc cells share the load behind a sapphire lens, so a single hit never stops the heart of the frame.

Output
3.1 MW
Cells
3 of 3 live
Shield
Class V

A dropped cell reroutes in 12 ms; the exposed lens is rated against 900 J of impact.
