For "chemical" in Japanese fire service parlance read "foam".

These heavy foam tenders are custom built and relatively few and far between in Tokyo. But around a third of all 440 Tokyo front line pumpers are also equipped as first response pumps with class B foam equipment and compound on board, with at least one at each full-time fire station.
