Incredible maneuverability and 4 wheel drive capabilities to get serious firefighting ability to hard to reach places:
MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN- Excellent hill climbing ability taking 150 gallons of water, 9 h.p. pump, and a lightweight hose to the action. Articulating body enables theW.A.S.P. to "walk" over obstacles. A 6 man personnel carrier, cargo beds, and trailers are available for heavy hauling to remote fire sites.
BOGGY TERRAIN- Full time true 4 wheel drive with 12" wide bar lug tires provide excellent mud traction.
TIMBER- Narrow profile and articulating steering enables wildland firefighters to maneuver between trees you could never get a booster truck through.
GRASSLANDS- The W.A.S.P. enables departments to split their crews into more effective teams at a fraction of the cost of a full size booster truck, while still putting a 2 man crew out to PUMP and ROLL with 150 gallons of water and 6 gallons of foam with proportioning system.
Other possible uses for the W.A.S.P.: River walks Fairgrounds and Sporting Events Industrial Complexes Useful tool for Controlled Burns Homeowners Associations in Rural Areas Ranch fire Protection Mountain Resort Communities Zoos Search and Rescue Vehicle Personnel and Tool Transport
