The ¿mobile medical vehicle?used by Mindef. This mobile station takes just 15 minutes to set up, which is three times faster than the time taken to set up a normal medical post, and can treat up to 200 people. It has advanced life-support systems, like a ventilator which allows customisable breathing and life support cycles and a water tank for washing wounds.

The Government, however, has rejected the allegation, arguing that the concept was not new.
