Emergency One Inc and the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) in cooperation with Amsterdam Airport Schiphol has signed a contract for 34 Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) vehicles. The contract involving the RNLAF, Schiphol, and E-One is the largest single European ARFF order in E-One history.
The RNLAF ordered 25 trucks to protect five to six air force bases and one other military installation in the Netherlands. The remaining nine vehicles were ordered by Amsterdam Airport Schiphol to protect its operations.
These 8×8 ARFF vehicles will be powered with MTU 1005 bhp (750-kw) engines and are outfitted with dual coil spring independent suspension axles.
E-One's dealer in the Netherlands, Kenbri Firefighting, has worked with E-One to secure the order and will ensure parts, service, and warranty support for the life of the contract.
