Germany is buying twenty more Eagle battlefield ambulances. Last year, Germany ordered 198 of these vehicles. These wheeled armored vehicles weigh nine tons, and are 5.4 meters long and 2.1 meters wide. The 4x4 ambulance version can carry a driver, two medics and two patients. These vehicles are a bit larger than hummers, and heavier. The Eagle vehicles have been serving in Afghanistan since 2002.
