Grants worth 157,300 Euros awarded for acquisition of a modern fire engine in Abensberg.
Fire Protection Cash Drops a Bundle on a Badass Fire Truck
Money comes from the Fire Protection Tax, a law defined in the Bavarian Firefighting Act. This legal mumbo jumbo means that cities and towns in Bavaria need to have a fire department that's ready to roll, with the necessary equipment for any emergency.
This financial support is what helps the Free State purchase a state-of-the-art TLF 4000 tank fire truck. The price tag? A cool €157,300. This investment ensures the Abensberg Fire Department maintains top-notch firefighting capabilities.
What's the deal with this TLF 4000, you ask? It's loaded with firefighting equipment that a modern firefighter needs to take down blazes quickly and efficiently. Check out this hot list:
- Firefighting pump to blast water with the pressure needed to douse a fire effectively.
- An onboard quick attack system for a speedy response to flare-ups.
- A water tank to carry enough H2O for the fight of the century without running out.
- A full set of firefighting gear, because a firefighter ain't fully armed without it.
But that's not all, folks. This bad boy can even carry special extinguishing agents and hook 'em up with the necessary gear to blast them out.
The best part? The TLF 4000 can roll with either a crew of 3 firefighters or 6 personnel, depending on the situation. This flexibility means the Abensberg Volunteer Fire Department can tackle all sorts of situations, no matter how tricky they might be.
In other words, this TLF 4000 means business and will be a force to reckon with on the firefighting scene. Bring on the infernos, because this fire truck is ready to save the day!

(Oh, and in case you were wondering, a TLF 4000 is a mid-sized fire engine equipped for extended firefighting operations. It's got a big water tank – usually up to 4,500 liters – a powerful pump, enough space for a crew of 1+5 firefighters, and all the necessary firefighting equipment to tackle blazes and emergency situations. Plus, it's got a chassis like MAN or Iveco and a quick-attack hose. Cool, right?)
In the firefighting industry, the investment of €157,300 from the Fire Protection Tax, as defined in the Bavarian Firefighting Act, goes towards purchasing advanced equipment like the TLF 4000, a mid-sized fire engine. This not only ensures the Abensberg Fire Department's business operations but also equips them with the latest firefighting tools, including a firefighting pump, quick attack system, water tank, firefighting gear, specialized extinguishing agents, and the capacity to deploy a crew of either 3 firefighters or 6 personnel.
