SHERP Firefighting UTV is the ultimate solution in fighting forest fires that take place in the most extreme conditions – non-flying weather, harsh terrains and poor visibility and that are unaccessible by other transport.
Thanks to its extreme passability, SHERP Firefighting UTV can move across shaky grounds, fallen trees, cross swamps, mud, peatbog, and float in open waters. It can conquer the steep hills and sheer barriers, wade through thickets and easily maneuver in dense forests.
Building of firelines
Speed up the procedure of setting up preventive firelines due to the short time for transportation of firefighters and the necessary equipment to the harsh terrain locations.
Effective fire mop-up procedure
The tire cooling system allows it to move through smoldering areas and extinguish the embers in order to eliminate the possibility of fire renewal.
Direct and indirect firefighting attack
Highly effective firefighting actions due to the delivery of motorized and high-performance firefighting equipment to remote areas.
Eliminating flood aftermath
The Firefighting UTV can be a high-performance movable water pumping unit for drainage works during floods.
