    We have them. They're not that great. Too little agent and the discharge system is finicky. We use them as a ramp patrol vehicle and our tactics for them are to cut an immediate rescue path and wait for the big guns to arrive.

    I have trained at that base before. That 3 story aircraft trainer you see in the background is a BITCH!

    Can someone now please explain to our wonderful president why we can't cut the funding to the Military and NASA?

    A lot of today's technology was developed by NASA and the military for Special use, and was later redeveloped for civilian use.

    Good Luck with that ! By the time they figure out it was a mistake, the programs will have to play catch up for years!

    I'm failing to see how this is any different than the other RIV/light-crash trucks that have been out there for ages...

    only problem is that the one video states its the first crash response unit to use Ultra High Pressure technology... not quite, we have had a P-19 here for a while that is UHP.. but none the less wouldn't mind having one here at Ellsworth
