WASP Rescue joined the UK ISAR for a training exercise in Lincolnshire.
The UK International Search and Rescue Team use the former MoD Site at Waddington Training Centre to hone their rescue skills.
They were joined by members of the Lancashire ISAR and utilised the WASP during the training exercise in a variety of scenarios.
The WASP, or Warning Alarm for Stability Protection, was used in a number of emergency rescues including crane rescues, hot cutting and ropework.

WASP co-founder Matt Keogh, said: “The UK ISAR team have helped to develop the WASP so they fully understand the capabilities of the WASP.
“They are keen to ensure as many members of the UK ISAR team are familiar with the WASP and understand how to use it because it will be used in real life emergencies.
“The feedback from training exercises such as this is invaluable and I am proud to say that it has been incredibly positive.
“The personal out in the field who operate in such dangerous circumstances work as hard as they can to keep every scenario as safe as possible and it is easy to see how the WASP can help.”
The WASP is the result of the collaboration between Keogh, a serving fire fighter with Greater Manchester fire and renewed international search and rescue specialist and Rory O’Rourke, CEO and founder of DATUM Monitoring, UK industry leading monitoring and surveying experts.
