Description[edit]

The TLF-LL6500 is a fire engine. Like the fire engines that have existed since the middle of the twentieth century, it carries ladders, hoses, and other firefighting equipment in a compact vehicle. It is prized for its ability to hold nearly ten tons of water or fire retardant. This is useful when the fire is in rural locations or the water supply is otherwise lacking.[1][2]

Equipment and Capabilities[edit]

The vehicle features 8 passenger seats (0.6 tons), 2x mounted searchlights (1 ton), 2x 100 meter ladder (1 ton) and 2x sprayer (0.03 tons).[1][2]

Cargo[edit]

The TLF-LL6500 has 4 tons standard cargo, 4 doors (2 left/2 right), 8.071 tons liquid (8.87 tons).[1][2]
