    The one minute clip on the $27 million dollar Fire-Boat? Maybe we'll see more about this boat in a video for fire-fighting planes and helicopters.

      Oxygen isn't flammable by itself, it makes other things ignite, and yes they use regular air because it has oxygen in it.

      I suspect the LA fire chief didn’t know that a fire boat can be used to put out fires on land.
      Can’t figure out any other reason it wasn’t used.

      Oxygen is an "oxidizer." While O2 isn't flammable, it's introduction into a fire creates an explosive increase in the burning process.

  • @scottsasser7749
    @scottsasser7749 6 месяцев назад

    Well, yeah, because they get access to water constantly. That's why they can put more water on a fire than a firecraft. Now what they need to do is all these fires that are on land they should send fire water trucks, so didn't it have a supply of water? Constantly and the hoses need to be up-to-date. They don't leak. They keep their fire truck so spotless and shiny, but they don't keep there. Hoses and good shape all the fittings. Have you ever seen it on TV? Look at the ground underneath the fire truck. Is it dry or is it wet if it's wet? Then it's leaking

      These mega-million dollar monstrosities are becoming a thing of the past. Small, extremely fast & lightweight aluminum or composite fireboats capable for pumping large volumes are becoming more prevalent. Easier to house or dock, simpler training & maintenance, & much lower in costs to purchase, operate, & repair. But, yes, Robt Allan Ltd designs the most fireboats of various sizes including for NYC, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, LA, & LB.

    Reminds me of "single propeller helicopter", "chinook propellers can clash each other", what is the actual price anyway? I heards a chance of swimmers as invasion, then if wrong info, colours looks like egypt or arab anyway? Fireengine supposed to be all red? Ships can install "own flood as water will drop to sea anyway". Unless this is like blackoil on sea and fire(if swimmers exist)? Or if just for fun thing might happen? Why is it written like that? $27m?
