Vita Inclinata Technologies has acquired Air Rescue Systems (ARS), a helicopter response, training, and equipment company that has served customers in various branches of the military and emergency response organizations worldwide for more than 20 years. Vita said combining the companies will provide lifting solutions to a broader range of emergency response organizations, equipping them with the tools and skills required to execute successful missions. 
ARS offers courses for advanced helicopter operations, including hoist, short-haul, rappel, fast rope, medical/rescue, precision long line, and skid operations tailored to mission-specific requirements with equipment that is purpose-designed and built by helicopter operations professionals. This includes the Air Rescue Vest—Quick Connect, which is used by the U.S. Army, Navy, and Marines.  
Part of Vita Inclinata, Vita Aerospace manufactures the Vita Rescue System—Litter Attachment, which utilizes a computer-controlled fan package to adjust speed, and stabilize hoist loads and eliminate spinning. "We are honored to partner with Air Rescue Systems to expand our reach and impact in the emergency response landscape," said Caleb Carr, co-founder and CEO of Vita Inclinata Technologies. "This partnership enables us to provide comprehensive solutions needed to address the challenges of emergency situations. Together, we will drive innovation and empower teams worldwide to save lives and protect communities."
