The Ruth Lee Helicopter Winch Training Manikin – Realistic & Durable for Safe Rescue Training

Ruth Lee Helicopter Winch Training Manikin is a high-performance, lifelike rescue dummy designed for helicopter winching, hoist operations, and air rescue training. Trusted by military, coast guard, emergency services, and SAR teams worldwide, this training manikin replicates the size, weight, and movement of a real casualty, ensuring safe and effective hoist training in extreme conditions.

Key Product Features:

• Has lighter legs than the standard Man Overboard model, meaning that the legs float more readily when fitting the harness/strops in water
• The manikin will sit in a stable “W” position whilst winched to the helicopter
• Compatible with standard and Hypothermic Lifting straps
• Buckle clips on the inside knees and ankles allows for the option of keeping legs together
• The tough nylon mesh carcass allows the water to penetrate quickly, allowing the legs to drop beneath the surface, leaving only the head and shoulders visible, if desired
• Dry weight 40Kg (Adult) increases to approximately 65 Kg retrieval weight from water
• Floats horizontally, vertically or at 45 degrees, to simulate a live person or dead body – achieved by redistributing foam pieces within the overalls in a matter of seconds
• Bright orange overalls and SOLAS reflective tape on the head make the manikin highly visible in open water
• Strong webbing loop at the back allows easy handling, storage and suspension for drying
• The soft feet are designed to allow rapid drainage to prevent too much water in the helicopter
• Comes complete with overalls and soft feet, which are easily replaced if damaged
