One Vehicle, Many Names

Depending on where you are in the world, a "fire truck" might go by several different names, often reflecting local linguistic heritage or the specific role the vehicle plays:

• Fire Engine / Fire Truck: The most common terms used in the United States, Philippines, and Canada.
• Fire Appliance: The formal term used in the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.
• Camión de Bomberos: The standard name across Latin America and Spain.
• Bombardero / Auto-bomba: Often used in parts of South America to describe trucks specifically equipped with high-pressure pumps.
• Vigili del Fuoco (Vehicle): How you might refer to one in Italy.

Multi-Purpose Applications

The Dongfeng chassis is celebrated for its adaptability, allowing Chengli to configure the vehicle for specialized missions:

The primary use of the truck is "Attack." It carries large volumes of water and Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF). Using the formula for discharge pressure and flow, these trucks ensure that the water reaches the heart of the fire:

• Forest & Wildland Firefighting

  Equipped with 4x4 off-road capabilities, Dongfeng "Brush Trucks" are used in rugged terrains. They feature reinforced undercarriages and high-clearance tires to navigate through forests and grasslands.

• Industrial & Chemical Response

  In industrial zones, these trucks act as Dry Powder Tenders. They are equipped to handle Class B and C fires (flammable liquids and electrical) where water would be ineffective or dangerous.

• Urban Search and Rescue (USAR)

  Beyond fire suppression, many Dongfeng units are outfitted as Rescue Squads. They carry hydraulic "Jaws of Life," lighting towers, and medical equipment to assist in vehicular accidents or building collapses.
