6×6 Sinotruk Howo 5000 gallons fire truck Somalia

The 6×6 Sinotruk HOWO 5000 gallons fire truck is a heavy-duty fire water tender built on a 6×6 HOWO chassis with a 420 HP diesel engine and 10 speed manual gearbox. It is designed for fire brigades and industrial safety teams operating in remote or rugged terrain where hydrant access is unavailable and rapid response is critical. The truck carries 10,000 litres of water, 1,500 litres of foam, and 1,000 kgs of dry powder, enabling it to suppress large-scale fires without relying on external water sources.

Key Benefits

  • 6×6 HOWO chassis with 420 HP engine and 10 speed manual gearbox ensures high mobility on unpaved and off-road terrain
  • 10,000 litre water tank, 1,500 litre foam tank, and 1,000 kg dry powder tank allow extended fire suppression without resupply
  • CB10/60 fire pump delivers 60 l/s at 1.0 MPa with priming completed in under 50 seconds at 7 metres suction depth
  • Sandwich PTO allows pump and roll operation while the truck is moving, maintaining attack flow during transit
  • Tank material available in carbon steel or stainless steel to match water quality and storage duration requirements
