Large tank tender (Czech Republic)
Large tank fire engines are characterized by their large amount of extinguishing water guided by them. Especially in areas where there is no water available for fire fighting in the vicinity of the fire, large tank fire engines facilitate fire fighting. Due to their reduced fire-fighting equipment and low crew, these vehicles are only used in conjunction with other fire engines. The task is then to make the loaded fire water to the other fire engines and the new shuttle water to the work site to bring. Just like the tank fire engines and the emergency tank fire engines, they belong to the group of CAS vehicles.
