The Sinotruk HOWO 12000 litre fire brigade truck is a 4x2 water tender built on a heavy-duty HOWO chassis for fire departments and industrial safety teams operating in regions with limited hydrant access. It carries 12 cubic metres of water and is equipped with a CB10/40 fire pump and PL24-48 monitor capable of delivering 24 to 48 litres per second at a range of 50 metres. Designed for rapid deployment, it supports initial attack operations on structural, forest, and industrial fires where water supply is unreliable or delayed.
