The most efficient, effective fire extinguishment seen so far this year. Kudos to this agency and its apparatus. Great deployment of apparatus to this fire site. Fantastic management of resources and personnel. Bring it on!
Yup, absolutely brilliant. Guy popped out wearing his full gear and got right on it - not a second wasted. Only criticism is the finger on the lens, but I suppose you had more important business at hand 😀
@@penguins9645 Every COUNTY in every state should have one of these. They can get good used one's very cheap. With so many gas tankers and other kinds of tankers on the road and people paying no attention to driving anymore as the text is more important.
I think the reason why they have this unit is that it is a used former airport rig that somebody was smart enough to buy - probably very cheaply from either a military base or from a local airport that was switching to newer equipment. These are built like tanks and will last forever if well-maintained, and I bet it cost 10% of what a new full-size tanker would’ve cost. They get little to no use, and so even an older unit like this could have under 1000 miles on it. And they are usually very well maintained. Not the easiest thing to drive around in a town, but this appears to be a fairly Rural area, so it’s just a really smart idea. There’s plenty of these rigs floating around on the used equipment market, so if you get a chance to buy one for your town - buy it!👍😁
These were donated with the primary intent of using them for Toledo Executive Airport, which is in our jurisdiction. With that, we realized how useful it can be on vehicle and brush fires, as well, and expanded its use.

Clearly professionals. Fastest water/foam on fire after arriving on scene hands down of any video posted. Got out of the vehicle with breathing gear on, helmet on, turnout gear fully put on, gloves on, boots on and hose pulled out in seconds. Outstanding.
UH, that's because ARFF trucks are designed for that, because in aircraft fires you have a very short window to save lives. But they're not very useful on the average building fire.
@@ffjsb Come on guy, i've seen tons of vids here on YT where tankers would pull up on a large working fire and the guys would bumble around for 10 minutes before getting water on the fire. This dept is outstanding, simply put......
@@ct87gn25 What does your statement have to do with anything??? We're NOT talking about tankers, or inept firefighters. Even the guy who posted this video will tell you that an ARFF truck is NOT designed for structural firefighting.
@@gwencrawford737 Kid, I only have 40 years on the job, and a major in Fire Science. An ARFF truck is a pretty stupid truck to bring to a structure fire. It's like using a howitzer to kill a mouse. Not every structure fire is fully involved. Most of the time it's room an contents. Not to mention, a lot of times people have these things called trees all around their houses, that would make a foam turret useless. Then there's the cost. ARFF trucks are a SPECIALTY apparatus for a reason. You don't have vent fans, or supply lines on them, not to mention ladders and pike poles, and many of the other tools an engine carries. The other thing is that ARFF trucks are usually located at airports where they're REQUIRED to have a minimum number of trucks on hand, or the airport has to shut down operations. The FACT is, they're just not practical for most structure fires, and usually are only special called for special circumstances in industrial fires. Go calm down and play with your lego fire trucks or something.
In the 1960’s in Minneapolis, a gasoline tanker truck overturned in a city intersection, turning the whole intersection into a mass of fire. The fire department was having a hard time with it because they didn’t have enough foam capability to handle a large gasoline fire, so they concentrated on saving the surrounding buildings. They called MSP airport for help. A crash truck arrived and hit it with foam and the gasoline fire was knocked down within minutes, so the city fire department was left to finish the structural firefighting.
Several years ago a gasoline tanker overturned near my house. Fortunately it didn't catch fire. I heard it when it overturned, it made the loudest mentality sound I ever. Three homes had to be evacuated I was just outside of evacuation area. Fortunately it didn't explode. Just a lot of spilled gasoline that had to be dealt with. The had to call for hazmat crew and another tanker to offload gasoline from the overturned tanker. I believe I saw a crash truck from Seymour Johnson AFB at the location.
They need to make em that size again. A crash truck is super versatile but the big manufacturers are not making the P19 size anymore. Damn shame because they are great for towns with an small airfield and they can serve several roles
This kind of fire truck (for airports) is capable of up to 70 mph, and I have seen one demonstrated off-road. They have a long, remote controlled nozzle that can send water/foam a long distance, and have a huge water capacity on board.
That's the way ARFF crews are trained, and ARFF apparatus are designed specifically for rapid intervention. This could just as easily have been an aircraft crashed in a field.
I live near DTW airport and every once in awhile I will see one of these rigs heading off the airport for mutual aid to help with a fire. It’s really awesome to see.
Outstanding 👍 This is the sort of game changer that regular fire engines need. You can see the deployment speed comparison between the nose nozzle and the manual hose reel. Brilliant. Thank you for sharing this.
Almost every department in the USA has a fast water applicator and it is hardly ever used. It is called The Deck Gun! It can be put into action as fast as the engineer can bring up the pressure.
Fine work done here, and a nice standard-model P-19 as well. A P-19A or B would be slightly nicer to have, but these standard P-19s are more than effective as ARFF vehicles. Oshkosh made a nice and simple truck when they designed the P-19 as a supplement to the older P-4.
We had a massive Racing Fuel Manufacture fire here a few years ago. City crews were having problems with knockdown until a Chief requested an ARFF unit from the local airport...knockdown was effected within a half hour or so upon the ARFF's arrival.
Blimey, I blinked and the fire was almost out. Great response by this crew, helps having the right equipment and knowing how to use it.Well done from the UK.
Not a chance! That nozzle does not have a good Line of Sight on the main burning material. The trailer. All he did was totally drown the cockpit to the point it would be filled to the windowsills and most of their onboard water would be wasted.
That is absolutely awesome and fantastic multi use of a piece of apparatus, whether it's for AARF or vehicle fires, or brush fires. Just imagine the initial attack and results on a fully involved barn or house. Lake Twp is obviously cutting edge in their thinking! High fives Lake Twp. FD!!!!!!

Joe ❤😂😂
ARFF28 is actually staffed by home-response, paid-per-call members who staff whatever rig we need out the door at a moment's notice. Clearly, they train on it quite a bit!
This is def an Airport truck but it goes to show how effective a deck gun can be on a vehicle let alone a house.. Totally understated . So many companies spec out engines with fancy remote controlled deck guns and then rarely use them when it can benefit everyone including victims. Cooling and knocking down fire is the initial problem . SO DO IT... #deckguns savelivesquickandfast
Not high-pressure fog nozzle. Plain old Akron brass multi-nozzle. May have an attachment for the goose-necked fog nozzle. High-pressure fog is a thing of the past. When I has on my tour of duty US Air Force had those huge aluminum crash nozzles. Not the best for firefighting in today's aircraft.
UH, that's an AMERICAN BUILT P-19, made in Appleton Wisconsin, they've made those for decades. They're only high pressure for reach, and use on ARFF fires. They're not useful for most structure fires.
Pretty pointless overall. If you need that much water in a frontal attack, you are fighting a fire that's already ignited the entire structure. Ladder trucks with nozzles are much more superior.
@@hottoddy6757 , that's why the US Air Force just ordered up and had delivered a buttload of Rapid Intervention Vehicles that use Ultra High Pressure pumps, right? I read not too long ago, that they were using the RIVs as replacements for the venerable P-19s which were getting a bit long in tooth.
I had to look twice - that fire sept is in our local area. That ARFF unit is good to have for coverage if a plane goes down from the local municipal airport and all of the heavy truck traffic through this area
These ARFF trucks can also be very effective in initial attack on forest fires 🔥 if used quickly! Think of the Almeda fire in Southern Oregon a couple of years ago! They sure could've used them for that terrible fire!
Well that's a change from the normal, arrive, stretch, pull hoses, find hydrant, figure out how to open hydrant, pull hoses, take a coffee break, put water on the fire, arrival.
Finally: USA goed department learn for Dutch fire fighters to have at least 1 hose ready to pull out without needing to connect hoses to the engine or firehydrant. Good for you guys! Took you guys about 4 decades, but now you're here: welcome to the club of permanent connected fire hose.
What are you babbling about? The US fire service has been using pre-connect speedlays since the 40's, in fact a minimum of 2 are required on each Engine Prior to that time period, pre-connected reel lines were primarily used
Seeing how almost every big city has an international airport. They all do have rigs like these. They just aren't allowed to leave the airport grounds. Lots of big cities have foam trucks that accomplish basically the same thing.
@@eriksand9262 actually Crash tenders do go on runs outside of airports if requested but most of the time they only will respond to aircraft down calls. They're not restricted to only airfields they are used for other incidents too if they are needed but it's not common , they're only dispatched if there is a serious threat to the safety of fire personnel because a ARFF crash tender can put a fire out pretty quickly while keeping the personnel out of harms way. They're also used if they're the closest unit to the incident outside of the airport and other units are still enroute.
@@josephbennett3482 There's FAA MINIMUM manning, so they can't just run off the airport all the time. Danger to fire personnel has nothing to do with it.
@@ffjsb in many places the ARFF aren't even at the airport itself they're at the closest fire station to the airport and are manned by the firefighters of that station where the tender is and the tender has to be taken to the airport , my regional airport is like that one of the township fire stations where my airport is houses the crash tender off-site and when an emergency occurs they are dispatched to the airport.
@@josephbennett3482 It depends on the size of the airport. There are specific FAA regulations as to how much equipment is required, and the minimum response times required.
MOST EFFICIENT fir put out Ive seen in a long time! in some videos I se the firefighters stand around, and after a long time when the fires almost out, they finaly hit it with a hose.
As a former firefighter/engineer, we trained extensively with crash units. Based on this experience, I have long believed that departments would benefit from having a crash unit for calls such as this. They are a high-ticket item, but so is the value of lives and property they can protect. The ROSENBAUER Panther 4x4, in particular, is highly maneuverable, and has features that no conventional pumper can match. Instant-on 1500 gallons of light-water, foam, and dry chem, that can extinguish large difficult fires in seconds! That, combined with pump and roll, off-road travel, and stand-off, are just a few attributes. -Hats off to this department on how quickly and professionally, they handled this call.
Why bother spending all that money for what basically amounts to a big dumpster fire??? Most engines have a deck gun, and could knock down this fire as well, without using thousands of dollars worth of foam.
I live close to a regional airport with three Ziegler Z8. With about 10 hours every day without any flights, you freequently see these ARFFs on other calls. They are pretty capable and where frequently used around here on wildland fires, but for the money of one ARFF you can pretty much buy 2-3 other fire trucks. And the capabilities are not that unique, around here all the off-road water tenders are equipped for wildland fires (master stream, pump and roll in first gear), only the foam capabilities are missing.
Excellent comment. EV fires as we all know take a HUGE amount of water to knock down. Having an ARFF rig like this might just be what ALL depts will need to fight that type of serious fire. And with all these EV's being sold, and what we all know about them, there will be many EV fires in the very near future.
The P-19 carries 1000 gallons of water, and 130 gallons of foam concentrate. You're going to need a water supply early on with an EV fire that's REALLY going good. 1000 gallons ain't gonna do it. The foam use? Really may or may not do much good... the problem is when the battery is in thermal runaway, you've got to use plenty of water to overcome that. AFFF isn't going to change that. One of your bigger problems is getting the water where it needs to go on the vehicle to shut the thermal runaway down. In Europe, one practice that seems to have gotten traction, is basically a big delivered container that can be filled with water, and then they pick up the vehicle and put it in the container, which addresses the runaway and contains everything. Some reports I've gotten here in the US... is that you're talking about 12,000 gallons of water and several hours used up, trying to cope with an EV in full thermal runaway... and then, flat-bedding the thing to a wrecking yard and putting it somewhere away from everything, in case it renews its thermal runaway in hours or days after it was initially put out by the fire department. EVs are just a problem right now, and while I'm sure we'll solve the puzzle on how to deal with them... for right now, I'm NOT looking forward to dealing with em.
@@gwencrawford737 Yeah, you’d likely need a bigger and newer ARFF truck like the 6x6 or 8x8 variants of the Oshkosh Striker, which hold 3000 and 4500 gallons of water, respectively
And these firefighters are paid-per-call, respond from home folks! Paid, unpaid, the standards and expectations should all be the same and these guys train hard to be this good.
I suppose if a department can get a used ARFF truck at a decent price it would make sense in a situation where tankers are necessary and/or where foam is a regular need. This one truck can serve the purpose of three separate rigs perhaps and maybe have fairly regular use.
Excellent Quick Attack !! Now this is what every fire department needs. To see 80% of fire responses take atleast 3-6 minutes to get hoses out and charge the lines is ridiculous. Having a Fast Response vehicle with a front water gun is the way to go.....
FAST, but! You have to bring your own water, so you have to think about what is burning, where it is, and then Surgically apply just enough water to stop combustion. When you know longer have a Line of Sight on the burning material, you have to stop "Squirting" and Think! You shut down the deck gun and surgically apply the water with a maneuverable hose. Hey Chief! I think the cockpit is not going to burn anymore!
You need more fire trucks like that on this planet these small towns even four houses the first thing I will a house fire have one of these trucks and a water truck to where all you have to do is hook up to the water truck instead of hunting for a damn fire hydrant and you guys did damn good job on putting that fire out

Not first unrolling a lot of hose before water flows
Finally: USA goed department learn for Dutch fire fighters to have at least 1 hose ready to pull out without needing to connect hoses to the engine or firehydrant. Good for you guys! Took you guys about 4 decades, but now you're here: welcome to the club of permanent connected fire hose.
What are you babbling about?
The US fire service has been using pre-connect speedlays since the 40's, in fact a minimum of 2 are required on each Engine
Prior to that time period, pre-connected reel lines were primarily used
That was cool,yep every big city needs a truck like that one .
Seeing how almost every big city has an international airport. They all do have rigs like these. They just aren't allowed to leave the airport grounds. Lots of big cities have foam trucks that accomplish basically the same thing.
@@eriksand9262 actually Crash tenders do go on runs outside of airports if requested but most of the time they only will respond to aircraft down calls.
They're not restricted to only airfields they are used for other incidents too if they are needed but it's not common , they're only dispatched if there is a serious threat to the safety of fire personnel because a ARFF crash tender can put a fire out pretty quickly while keeping the personnel out of harms way. They're also used if they're the closest unit to the incident outside of the airport and other units are still enroute.
@@josephbennett3482 There's FAA MINIMUM manning, so they can't just run off the airport all the time. Danger to fire personnel has nothing to do with it.
@@ffjsb in many places the ARFF aren't even at the airport itself they're at the closest fire station to the airport and are manned by the firefighters of that station where the tender is and the tender has to be taken to the airport , my regional airport is like that one of the township fire stations where my airport is houses the crash tender off-site and when an emergency occurs they are dispatched to the airport.
@@josephbennett3482 It depends on the size of the airport. There are specific FAA regulations as to how much equipment is required, and the minimum response times required.
Eso se llama rapidez y no pedazos, desde el mismo momento en que llega el camión empieza a extinguir el fuego sin perder tiempo, los felicito.
MOST EFFICIENT fir put out Ive seen in a long time! in some videos I se the firefighters stand around, and after a long time when the fires almost out, they finaly hit it with a hose.
Расчет в два бойца - водитель - оператор лафета и ствольщик !!! 🤔😉👍😥🚒🇨🇭🧯
Nicely done.
That wasn't a semi fire, that was definitely on fire.
My man rolls up with airport rig damn you guys don't mess around
That’s fun times right there!
As a former firefighter/engineer, we trained extensively with crash units. Based on this experience, I have long believed that departments would benefit from having a crash unit for calls such as this. They are a high-ticket item, but so is the value of lives and property they can protect. The ROSENBAUER Panther 4x4, in particular, is highly maneuverable, and has features that no conventional pumper can match. Instant-on 1500 gallons of light-water, foam, and dry chem, that can extinguish large difficult fires in seconds! That, combined with pump and roll, off-road travel, and stand-off, are just a few attributes. -Hats off to this department on how quickly and professionally, they handled this call.
Why bother spending all that money for what basically amounts to a big dumpster fire??? Most engines have a deck gun, and could knock down this fire as well, without using thousands of dollars worth of foam.
I live close to a regional airport with three Ziegler Z8. With about 10 hours every day without any flights, you freequently see these ARFFs on other calls. They are pretty capable and where frequently used around here on wildland fires, but for the money of one ARFF you can pretty much buy 2-3 other fire trucks. And the capabilities are not that unique, around here all the off-road water tenders are equipped for wildland fires (master stream, pump and roll in first gear), only the foam capabilities are missing.
@@danielrose1392 You can add foam to the tank beforehand if needed.
@@ffjsb Not really, the foam always goes in an extra tank. Otherwise you would have to dump the whole load, even if you don't need that much foam.
@@danielrose1392 WRONG. You clearly don't know anything about foam solutions or how to use them.
Excellent and curious if electric vehicle fires may be requiring more foam attacks? Great job on the truck!
We're waiting for a chance to find out, but better for everyone if that takes a while. Statistically, it's only a matter of time.
Excellent comment. EV fires as we all know take a HUGE amount of water to knock down. Having an ARFF rig like this might just be what ALL depts will need to fight that type of serious fire. And with all these EV's being sold, and what we all know about them, there will be many EV fires in the very near future.
The P-19 carries 1000 gallons of water, and 130 gallons of foam concentrate.
You're going to need a water supply early on with an EV fire that's REALLY going good. 1000 gallons ain't gonna do it.
The foam use? Really may or may not do much good... the problem is when the battery is in thermal runaway, you've got to use plenty of water to overcome that. AFFF isn't going to change that.
One of your bigger problems is getting the water where it needs to go on the vehicle to shut the thermal runaway down.
In Europe, one practice that seems to have gotten traction, is basically a big delivered container that can be filled with water, and then they pick up the vehicle and put it in the container, which addresses the runaway and contains everything.
Some reports I've gotten here in the US... is that you're talking about 12,000 gallons of water and several hours used up, trying to cope with an EV in full thermal runaway... and then, flat-bedding the thing to a wrecking yard and putting it somewhere away from everything, in case it renews its thermal runaway in hours or days after it was initially put out by the fire department.
EVs are just a problem right now, and while I'm sure we'll solve the puzzle on how to deal with them... for right now, I'm NOT looking forward to dealing with em.
@@gwencrawford737 Yeah, you’d likely need a bigger and newer ARFF truck like the 6x6 or 8x8 variants of the Oshkosh Striker, which hold 3000 and 4500 gallons of water, respectively
Excelente trabalho, rápido e eficiente....
😚 Nice done water good job for a work area
These guys did a flawless job hitting this fire!!!!! Its frequently frustrating to see paid duty guys show very little hustle.....
And these firefighters are paid-per-call, respond from home folks! Paid, unpaid, the standards and expectations should all be the same and these guys train hard to be this good.
How are your eyes?
Very Impressive!!!!!
great job guys!!!!!!!!!!
Get some! Get some! 🤘🤘
I suppose if a department can get a used ARFF truck at a decent price it would make sense in a situation where tankers are necessary and/or where foam is a regular need. This one truck can serve the purpose of three separate rigs perhaps and maybe have fairly regular use.
That was pretty cool. I’d thought it would have been a lot harder to put out.
Fantastic!
Thumbs up to all Emergency personnel, Fire, Police and Ambulance.
" let's go, babe " really got the driver moving 🤭😍
Excellent Quick Attack !! Now this is what every fire department needs. To see 80% of fire responses take atleast 3-6 minutes to get hoses out and charge the lines is ridiculous. Having a Fast Response vehicle with a front water gun is the way to go.....
No... It isnt
If they were practical then every FD would have them
The reality is that they are of very limited usefulness
Hands down best response with wet stuff on the hot stuff I’ve seen.
Nice job
You should see what the roof turret does at 750gpm out of that Oshkosh P19
Outstanding
nice work
That is awesome
FAST, but! You have to bring your own water, so you have to think about what is burning, where it is, and then Surgically apply just enough water to stop combustion. When you know longer have a Line of Sight on the burning material, you have to stop "Squirting" and Think! You shut down the deck gun and surgically apply the water with a maneuverable hose. Hey Chief! I think the cockpit is not going to burn anymore!
Perfect!!
This is the way to work, fast and efficient and a little "fast and furious"
Talk about not messing around!
Usually the water to fire is measures in many minutes, this was seconds.
Just wow!
AMazing that there were no spectators milling around !!!
When pgm only gives you seconds of tank water! Good knockdown
So stell ich mir einen Schnellangriff vor❤
That s cool !
You need more fire trucks like that on this planet these small towns even four houses the first thing I will a house fire have one of these trucks and a water truck to where all you have to do is hook up to the water truck instead of hunting for a damn fire hydrant and you guys did damn good job on putting that fire out
Not for every fire but effective when we can use it!
That was quick
