Airport Crash Tender Interschutz
This very unusual massive airport machine apparently based on an articulated earthmoving machine ? was photographed at the Intershultz exhibition in Hannover about 20 years ago. I have never seen a similar vehicle since so unsure if the concept caught on.

Two types were built. The DA-1500 and the DA-1800.
DA 1500 - 1500 gallons water, 265 foam, 500 lbs halon.
DA-1800 - built for DFW; 1800 gallons water, 265 foam.
Versatile, go anywhere vehicle, but easy to roll over.

Cuba bought one and there was on ein Wisconsin. Several others also were produced. The chassis is actually a military cargo truck chassis. The company Conrad made a 1/50 scale model of it.
