New LAFD Apparatus

Recommended Posts

The California Office of Emergency Services has provided the LAFD with 5 of these type 3 brush engines. All 5 are exactly alike and will not be re-painted or heavily modified due to them still technically being property of the state.

Also the department has implemented 2 "Fast Response Vehicles". The FRV is a quad-cab pickup truck/brush patrol that functions as both a fire-suppression vehicle and first-response Advanced Life Support unit. One FRV is based in the Valley and the other serves the Downtown area during peak weekday hours to provide flexible fire and EMS response in some of the City’s busiest areas.The FRV carries all the equipment and medical supplies of a paramedic Mobile Intensive Care Unit and is also equipped with a 300 gallon water tank with pumping capacity.
