About this creation

This is the proposal or a new vehicle for the airport battalion.

Its a marriage between several companies: Rosenbauer, Oshkosh, Pierce and Mack.

The truck is a Mack Pinnacle daycab, customised by Pierce.

The trailer is built by Rosenbauer, customised by Oshkosh.

It feautures a 10.000 gallon water tank and a 1250 gallon ARFF foam tank, 2 nozzles and a Runway foaming system.

When needed 2 revolving pipes with foam nozzles fold out from the back of the trailer, and can lay a foam blanket on the runway that is 13 meters wide to let aircraft with landing gear problems land.

And with its own 1000 gpm pump, and its own engine, the trailer can work autonomously from the truck, enableling pump and roll capability and as a large volume pumper/tanker with its 2 roof mounted nozzles.

The rig can also respond to the city if needed, but its main area of operation is the StuddsVille airport.

(A huge thanks to team lego-brandweer, my fellow Dutch builders for the awesome idea)
