Not often you will see a "Mog" with an extension ladder like this. With few exceptions (and this is one!) they are pretty much limited to brush and forest fire fighting roles - where they excel!

The chassis does not really afford enogh space to accommodate all the kit needed for structure firefighting, unless you shrink the tank down to around 1, 000 liters - which compromises its brush fire usefulness...
