As fire breaks out, two Rosenbauer 6x6 Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) machines rush to the spot with their sirens blaring and lights flashing. They come flying at speeds in excess of 100 kmph (they have a top speed of 120 kmph each) to the scene.
Accelerating from 0 to 80 kmph in 25 seconds with a GVW of 36-tonnes each (including 12,500 kg of water, 1,500 litres of foam and 200 kg of dry chemical powder), the two Rosenbauer 6x6 airport trucks, painted in a shade of highly visible red, are a sight to behold as their canons unleash a strong spray of water mixed with foam.
