Water Tender With 'COBRA' Cutting Equipment

[FireChief]

Hey Tim,

Very nice indeed. I like the detail. We have equipment like this in the US too. I've never really seen it used in structural firefighting, but i know lots of airport crash rescue trucks have them. The crash trucks use them to punture the skin of the aircraft, its very cool
looks nice

Hello  Ben, All 

Thank you very much for your kind feedback, which is allways very much appreciated. I am glad you liked the custom, here are a few pictures i found on the internet whilst doing my research.

The first shows the COBRA being used to punch through what looks like a sheet of metal.

The second is the actual unit mounted on one of the West Midlands fire appliances.
 
The third picture shows the COBRA in the back of a light pump.

Kindest Regards  Tim

Tim,

The detail in your fire service customs never fails to amaze me! The way you use so many small parts in new ways to recreate the detail and diversity found on "real" trucks is awesome. Wonderful job!
