Overview
Compressed Air Foam appliances were developed and introduced into services in the ACT in the aftermath of the tragic fires of January 2003. The vehicles were primarily designed for interfaced firefighting. Their versatility has since seen a broadening of their role for the ACT Fire Brigade and ACT Rural Fire Service.
