Expeditionary Medical Facilities

Modern Expeditionary Medical Facilities

The Alaska XP^® Medical Shelter System from Alaska Defense^® is engineered for today’s combat health support strategies. Built on the rugged durability of our proven shelter systems and the rapid-deployment design of the Alaska XP^®, these expeditionary medical shelters ensure seamless healthcare delivery on the battlefield and beyond.

Whether providing general hospital services, preventive medicine, stabilization, or isolation, the Alaska XP^® medical shelter enables fast setup and flexible configurations for U.S. Forces and allied militaries worldwide.

Combat Health Support Across All Levels

The Alaska XP^® Medical Shelter System is modular and scalable, supporting three key levels of medical care:

Echelon II – Division-Level Care

• Expanded services beyond Echelon I, including dental, x-ray, lab, and patient-holding
• Preventive medicine (PVNTMED) and combat operational stress control (COSC)
• Used by forward, main, division, and brigade support medical companies

Echelon III – Corps-Level Combat Support Hospital

• First full hospital facility for resuscitation, wound surgery, and postoperative treatment
• Stabilizes patients for evacuation or return to duty (RTD) within theater operations

Echelon IV – Field and General Hospitals

• Configurable for 15-bed to 200-bed field hospitals
• Expands theater-level capabilities for sustained medical care

Rapid Deployment Medical Shelters

Speed saves lives. The Alaska XP^® Medical Shelter System enables medical treatment within minutes of setup:

• 20’ wide x 32.5’ long – deploys in under 10 minutes with a trained crew of 6
• 20’ wide x 39’ long – deploys in under 12 minutes with a trained crew of 6

Both shelters are 10’ high at the peak and built for maximum efficiency in expeditionary missions.

Materials and Specifications

• Heavy-duty mil-spec vinyl fabric
• Fully powder-coated aluminum frame
• Berry Amendment compliant (made in the U.S.A.)

Engineered for Any Environment

Designed to perform in the harshest conditions, the Alaska XP^® Medical Shelter System ensures mission readiness in:

• Snow, rain, hail, and high winds
• Mountain, tundra, jungle, desert, and arctic terrains
• Extreme temperatures: maintains 72°F in +125°F heat and 65°F in -10°F cold with the Alaska ECU^® (optional)

Included energy-saving enhancements feature a liner system and LED lighting to improve efficiency. Optional supplemental systems, such as EnerLayer^® insulation and the Alaska Solar Fly^®, can drastically reduce energy usage in any deployment.
