Water Tower/Stinger fire engine

Manufacturer Rosenbauer, being evaluated by Lancs Fire and Rescue Service

[@Sarge084]

That is a neat piece of kit! I was watching a video of American firefighters dealing with a truck fire. They couldn't get to the seat of the fire deep inside a 45 foot trailer. The Stinger would have solved their problems and the stop message would have been sent a lot sooner!

[@cheesybeanz]

Amazing pieceof equipment. Every FRS should have at least one.

[@jamiep61]

I enjoyed watching the Video. One of the best Fire Engines based In the UK 😊

[@the_once-and-future_king.]

The Emergency-One/Scania Scorpion looks better. Plus they are made right here in England. Fire and rescue services should support British businesses.

[@bed4269]

Thank god you have some updated equipment!!!! THANKYOU!!!!

[@everettsemergencyvids4786]

Sam Hinchy this was made by Rosenbauer. I am dying to see this.

[@wcresponder]

Nice looking rig. How many times have you had need of the piercing tool?

[@firejam78]

Nice looking appliance but not sure the MAN chassis is the best

[@Louie-nv9yk]

ALL FIRE STATIONS NEED THIS

[@bulbinmyback8269]

louie crockett A,wow,

[@keplermission4947]

Not all need this no. The lowest of the low, the Glenrothes, Cadham Fire Service of Fife in Scotland put out a rose garden composter with no visible smoke. They broke down a gate on a private house to do it. evoboatsfm.blogspot.com/p/blog-page_15.html Wow! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qn3Eq6yJqdaeabM

Love the harpoon thing.

Saw this in action at fourth v10 polymer fire in Blackburn yesterday

[@emergencyservicevehiclesuk3063]

*wow looks so futuristic!*

[@neildahlgaard-sigsworth3819]

Ah, a modern Simonitor. What goes around, comes around.

[@hollanaj]

What thickness of material can the stinger pierce?

[@craighawke4482]

nice bit of gear

[@andrewreed6608]

As Blackburn got there's yet be nice to av a closer look

[@colinhowarth3070]

Andrew Reed they had one last week

[@lacika8615]

Stinger is very cool idea

[@richardjones4080]

if only this had been available sooner who knows what would have happened a few weeks ago

[@chizz32]

Nice piece of kit

[@spartano7193]

Me enamore de esa maquina

[@deeprajdesai9126]

Best for fire fighter and fire department

[@pmarmify]

would it not be a better idea to place a thermal imaging camera on the boom end so you can see the hot spots for roof fires?

[@1701spacecadet]

pmarmify That's what the IR camera is for.

[@saykhulhassan5235]

West Midlands Fire Services needs to buy fire engine stinger fire

[@EnidAgnusDei]

Is this going to mean that your brigade will be moving over to MAN chassis/cab pumps which are currently DAF? also can this all be fitted to a DAF chassis instead of a MAN one? I wish you luck with this but sadly if the MAN is anything like the ones we have then you will need luck.

[@staffsemergresp]

This vehicle is built by Rosenbauer and they don't have a DAF one available and no, these are only st ti stations I'm Lancs there main pumps are still DAFs

[@lincolntrains2639]

@@siinnit That's because they are national assets implemented as part of the new dimensions scheme, all services have the same IRUs and PMs

[@zeebeezoey]

ah, the old stab'n'spray

[@robertwalton7307]

Much better than sendings troops to the roof for cutting,bashing etc for ventilation. Take out all windows,(insurance pays) use this and fire goes out. You can unwet anything,can't unburn a single thing.Practice,practice,practice lets learn something new. Not 200 years of tradition un impeded by progress.

[@isaaccapes9921]

This should replace all the water laser fire engines but I think it should be a Scania Chassis

[@eksclips3831]

What's with the Scania?

[@isaaccapes9921]

Zeff the J4 really reliable we have one from 1991 still going strong

[@eksclips3831]

@@isaaccapes9921 but what about MAN?

[@isaaccapes9921]

Zeff the J4 honestly there crap, I would never have one ever

[@eksclips3831]

@@isaaccapes9921 how can you say that? Do they have a problem?

[@tropicaladventurevi]

Only problem is - It'll kill anyone in the compartment from steam burns.

[@firejam78]

Chris Watson it wouldn't be deployed if people were in the room if someone is trapped in there maybe they wouldn't use it until all persons were accounted for

[@coastliner7009]

The back doors look pretty german

[@EnjoyFirefighting]

How can they look German if NONE of the German fire trucks have such doors at the rear?

[@sophiemariepeter3751]

😁😁😁😁😁✌✌👍👍👍❤❤❤❤

[@user-ei3dq2dw6i]

Much prefer scania fire trucks

[@daniels9782]

I do hope Rosenbauer has for once managed to put something reliable together, our Merc/Rosenbauer combination ist pure shite...

[@EnjoyFirefighting]

that's common with the combination of a Mercedes-Benz with the Rosenbauer AT3
