Beautiful truck. The next door neighbor operated one of these at STL Lambert Int'l airport. On a few Sunday mornings, went out and rode around with him, he let me drive it on the tarmac and squirt water from the main gun. Love that engine sound.
I am surprised some of these- with their offroad capability- are not getting repurposed for wild fire service... a smaller pump and more hose storage with a set of misters to protect from burnover would make the kings in the brushfire wars and hoseline tenders in the woods.
Well considering most wildfires are in California and this is being a 2 stroke diesel, the odds of that happening are slim to none. They'd rather let their state burn
@@OIR339 Okay then some other Cali fey freindly airport truck? End of lifed for the airport? These thing could be awesome water tenders resupplying trucks at saftey zones and probably throw a wall of water at the leading edge of a fire approaching those zones if needed......
The Edmonton, International airport had like 5 of these. 4 were the 6x6 you showed but the real queen of the fire station was the 8x8 model. I swear that thing had two big engines powering it though I am not sure. I do know it was bigger and heavier than the largest articulated ladder tiller truck.
The Oshkosh P-15 Truck, Airport Rescue Fire Fighting (ARFF) is a 65 ton, 8x8 vehicle that was first fielded in 1977. It carries 6,100 gallons of water and 515 gallons of foam, designed for all-weather operations at airfields for fire suppression. Two 1,250 gpm pumps and two 1,200 gpm turrets deliver the water and foam. It is powered by two Detroit Diesel engines, weighs 130,860 lbs, is 45 feet long, 10 ft wide and 13.8 feet tall.
Probably a relatively late production engine. Engine certification goes by calendar year in which the block was cast; I'm not sure but I wouldn't be surprised if Detroit had tons of excess blocks cast in 1994-1995 with the intent of having the rest of the engine assembly completed later.
HOW MUCH COST IS TAKING THIS A OSHKOSH T3000 ARFF TRUCK AND I WANT TO USE IN ANGOLA FOR AIRPORTS OR AIRDROME ONLY AND I WANT TO EXPORT THAT THANKS FOR ME THIS CHANNEL
Worked on T-1500 in the Air Force. Peice of shit. The whole line had issues out of the factory. They spent more time broke or limited use it wasn't funny.

I Love the T3000, wish Oshkosh never stop making them.
Detroit Diesel Best Performing Engine On a Fire Scene..
These trucks don't usually drive on streets unbelievable

Do these have a generator or inverter to plug 110 into? I thought I saw two outlets on these.
