this says that all new pumpers in NYC are 2,000 GPM - and that the 5
satellites have 6 inch hose
so it seems to me that the superpumper will have 2 primary uses - a
huge foam attack piece - and a distant water supply piece - and also
just a huge deck gun truck - make that 3 primary uses lol - 3
co-primary uses even
overall - the FDNY pumping capability is approx
3 fireboats at 15K each ish
1 superpumper at 5K gpm plus foam plus ldh plus big gun
5 satellites at 2K each + big gun + ldh
2 trailer pumps at ?5K gpm
250 pumpers at 2K gpm each - no foam - no big gun - no ldh
any cisterns in NYC? maybe central park needs a million gallon cistern
- and a few of the other parks also
