EPISODE 19 : P19R USMC ARFF Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting vehicle

Описание: The P-19R Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) vehicle is the United States Marine Corps’ next-generation solution for protecting military airfields and aircraft operations. Developed by Oshkosh Defense, the P-19R replaces the aging P-19A with improved mobility, modern firefighting systems, and enhanced crew safety.

Built on a 6×6 all-wheel-drive chassis, the P-19R is designed to operate on both paved runways and austere expeditionary airfields. Powered by a 500-horsepower Caterpillar diesel engine and an Allison automatic transmission, this ARFF vehicle delivers rapid response capability where every second matters.

The P-19R carries a powerful firefighting package, including large water and foam capacity, dry chemical suppression, and roof-mounted and bumper turrets capable of engaging aircraft fires while on the move. Its advanced suspension, digital systems, and modern crew cabin reflect the USMC’s focus on speed, survivability, and reliability.

Deployed at Marine Corps Air Stations and forward operating bases worldwide, the P-19R ARFF plays a critical role in safeguarding Marine aviation assets and personnel.
