In the VBI, the delivery of modern fire tanks began.

The arsenals of the Center for Logistics of the Eastern Military District, deployed in the Amur Region, Trans-Baikal and Khabarovsk Territories, received the first batch of special fire engines (SPM) based on the main combat tanks T-72 and T-80, according to the press service of the BBO

Special fire engines produced JSC "Omsk Transport Engineering Plant". The car has a mass of about 60 tons and a power reserve of more than 250 kilometers. The crew of a fire tank of three people, using the equipment installed on the vehicle, is able to extinguish the fire at a distance of up to 100 meters.

The main advantage of this type of special equipment for extinguishing fires is the possibility of using it directly in the most dangerous places (extinguishing ammunition depots, center of man-made disaster). SPM is well armored, has high maneuverability and carries up to 25 cubic meters of water or special fire fighting equipment in its tank.

- noted in the BBO.

It would be better to do them on the T55 chassis, and the T72 and T80 were modernized, and given in parts.

[figwam]

That's based on the T-80.

[Jedi]

I'm sorry, I'm not a tanker, but I know that the T-72 and T-80 have six road wheels. There are seven of them in your photo, and in the photo for the article - 5. Is that the first chassis lengthened and the second shortened?

On the first - a machine based on T-55 \ 54, and here on a special base, using elements of the T-80 chassis

[Jedi]

Thanks for the clarifications. It turns out that the top photo does not match the content of the article.

In the photo to the article, it is based on the T-54/55

[Herculesic]

Here on the basis of precisely these tanks further and do! !

[Piramidon]

When extinguishing arsenals - the right machine. And then after all, until everything burns out and explodes, no one comes close to the fire. Interestingly, but his tank is also armored?

If the storage with b / p or a stack on the open area has already caught fire, then it’s too late to extinguish, run away and save the personnel, and evacuate the residential town. The main hazardous fires are a burning forest near the base. I had such a fire truck based on BMP, they did a great job, helped out more than once.

60 TONS! Is it a full load or for testing? Where will it go? In the taiga, it will drown. In the sand it will get stuck. Where is such a mass? And only 25 cubic meters of water! A killed primer usually goes to the ammunition depots. Good pepelats.

In the taiga-drown. In the sand-get stuck

In warehouses and arsenals there is neither one nor the other.

Quote: VERESK

To the ammunition depot is usually a dead primer.

Uh ... I don’t even know what to say. To the warehouses for which this tank is intended, a railway line usually goes.
And the “killed primer” is a clear disruption of combat readiness, as it will not allow “raising” those volumes of ammunition that are stored in these depots.

[HEATHER]

A "killed primer" - a clear disruption of combat readiness. We have such. MTLB hardly passes.

[Piramidon]

Most likely - this is the weight along with a full tank. The tank itself - 41 - 42 tons, minus the tower + tank, + water.

[Piramidon]

And only 25 cubes of water!

And what, in fire tankers more fits?

[HEATHER]

We have 60 cubic meters of water in MANs. Like in airports. Fire engines have 40-60 cubic meters of fire-extinguishing material. Based on the BAZ.

The tanker AC 3,2-40 / 4 on the KAMAZ 43253 chassis has a volume of only 3,2 cubic meters. And 60 cubes is such a barrel. Where does she turn around in the warehouse. This is not an airport.

[HEATHER]

The PMS-60 based on the BAZ carries 60 tons. It’s quite a machine. There is a cannon and 6 hoses with hoses. You have photos of the 60s. Now everything is neater and more elegant. I am too lazy to look for a photo. I’m from work, poking it in the stump . On the weekend I will provide. From our airport "Emelyanovo". I'm just tired. Sorry.

PMS-60 based on the BAZ drags 60 tons.

And how will she lead herself on your favorite “killed primer”? 8)))
You count. how much it will weigh. Based on the reservation. There is no BAZ, but an MZKT chassis is necessary.

[HEATHER]

The question is not for me. A concrete car for airports. We only drove along roads packed with concrete slabs. I didn’t go for cranberries on it.

[Piramidon]

Here is such an airfield bandura AA-60 (7310) -160.01 takes 12 cubic meters.



And I didn’t find PMS-60 anywhere.

[Lopatov]

Or here such:

Just 60 cubes

Recalled my friend! T-55 has long been sent for remelting.

The military balance for 2016 gives the figure (in storage) 2800

Given the fact that in 2008 the T-55s were still in service in 18 pool, they were unlikely to be disposed of.

[Livonetc]

But an unmanned version for extinguishing just ammunition depots would be very welcome.

[Reserve buildbat]

But isn't the T-55 in the photo? This, as I understand it, is an old tank, and a new photo has not yet been given.

Our tanks are not afraid of dirt! Fire tanks, of course, will be lightweight, excess metal will be removed.

Cute, it's time to let out such robots.
