The first batch of special fire engines based tanks T-72 and T-80 were first manufactured at Omsktransmash JSC after a two-year break. This is stated in the press service of UVZ, which includes the Omsk plant.

In Omsk resumed production of "fire tanks"




The first batch of "fire tanks" was made for the first time in two years at Omsktransmash and was already shipped to the customer as part of the state defense order. In the manufacture of special fire engines (SPM), the components and parts of the T-72 and T-80 tanks are used, which allows the use of this equipment for extinguishing fires and rescue operations at arsenals, warehouses and bases for storing explosive substances, clearing passages to fire centers, laying fire strips in forest fires.

The SPM or “fire tank” was developed by the designers of the Omsk Transport Engineering Plant in the 2012 year, and in the 2015 year this equipment was adopted for supply to the Russian Ministry of Defense. Based on the results of their operation, some improvements were made to the design, after which the production of modernized equipment was resumed.

SPM has the ability to extinguish a fire from a distance of 100 m, while the extinguishing processes can be controlled remotely. SPM is equipped with four surveillance cameras and two thermal imagers, which allows the crew to have a circular review of the area and identify fires at a significant distance.

The metal case is coated with a special refractory layer, which can maintain fire resistance for 2 hours.

The total mass of SPM is not more than 65 tons. The fire tank is protected by removable armored screens, the crew stationed in the armored cockpit is 3 person. Reservations protect the crew from bullets and fragments from a ground explosion. Maximum protection - against the expansion of elements of high-explosive fragmentation projectile caliber 152 mm.

The volume of water and other fire extinguishing agents is 25 cubic meters. SPM is equipped with a wedge-shaped blade for clearing the area and creating special firebreaks.

        No, this is not a T-80 or a T-72, the "fire tank" is based on the PTS-4

        In the design of which components were used: components and assemblies of the T-72 and T-80 tanks, as well as the original
        Engine - V-84 diesel from T-72

          Where to extinguish a dangerous fire, such as a gas storage or oil rig - that’s it. Even if everything suddenly explodes, the firefighters will remain alive.
          I can imagine the reaction of the Western press: "There are so many tanks in Russia that they even make fire engines out of them"

          In Russia, black lumberjacks are burning the taiga, this tank clearly lacks a heavy machine gun "Utes" .. And in general the gamekeepers need to be fully equipped, like the military!
          It means pounding. So we will not go far. I mean, black lumberjacks have quite legal sales outlets of forest stolen from Russian Nature. And big and respected people work in these offices ... That's where the investigator with daddy should come and present his legal requirements. But we understand that in Russia this is not done.

      I saw him in action. There was no fire pah pah, he cleared the forest. This crap in the photo is front to bottom, in fact, a knife. Trees centimeters to 30 just cuts down and throws back. You go on it and behind the clearing - horror.
      And also it seems to me that it will be more authentic than 72 and the places inside cannot be compared ....

        The car is definitely necessary. And it is necessary to clearly and competently draw up the staffing table for the availability of such machines in warehouses and bases, with mandatory training, and not "on paper", crews. And to have in stock a sufficient number of containers with fire-fighting liquid (non-freezing), which at any time could be hooked onto the machine and continue extinguishing.

      The machine is especially needed when eliminating fires in ammunition depots.
      Two points confuse:
      - "eat" a lot of diesel fuel;
      - Is the speed of the FIRE engine not too small?
