This latest sale is one of the more than 1,100 deliveries to over 80 nations through which the PANTHER has proven its operational excellence and established a market reputation as the world's most advanced ARFF. The first PANTHER with a Volvo EURO engine The new PANTHER has a 6-cylinder, rear-mounted engine with around 700hp and therefore, in spite of a weight of 39t, is capable of accelerating from 0-80 km/h within 30 seconds. The truck carries 12,500l of water, 1,500l of foam and 500kg of powder for fire fighting and also possesses a CO2 unit. However, the most outstanding feature of the new Linz PANTHER is the fact that it is the first of its type to be fitted with an original certificated EURO V Volvo engine. In addition, the truck is equipped with a front-mounted RM15C monitor and an RM60C on the roof with an output of 6,000 l/min at 10 bar. In combination with an integrated R600 pump, these high-performance monitors provide top throw distance ratings of up to 90m and both can be operated simply and simultaneously via a joystick. Other comfort and safety features include surrounding area lighting, LED lighting in the crew cabin, a quick start via the driver's door and a reversing camera. Common roots Although Rosenbauer is delighted by its worldwide export successes, it is naturally a source of extra satisfaction when one of Austria's airports again turns to its quality and thus guarantees the maintenance of the highest international safety standards. As Dieter Siegel, the Rosenbauer International AG CEO notes: "Rosenbauer represents a cornerstone of the Upper Austrian economic location. Therefore, the regional loyalty of the blue danube airport linz makes us especially proud, particularly as the Linz Airport shapes the first impressions of our international guests and customers upon their arrival in our city."
