Lion 4x4 ARFF

in partnership with Volkan Makina · Caribbean distribution & service by Allen + Co.

A purpose-built 4x4 ARFF platform for regional and secondary Caribbean airfields — full Lion firepower in the smallest configuration.

The Lion 4x4 packages the same Volkan-engineered fire-suppression stack as its bigger siblings into a chassis sized for the realities of Caribbean Code 2–6 airfields: tight aprons, narrow service roads, and runways flanked by bush, beach or salt marsh. Lightweight composite superstructure and polypropylene tanks keep the GVW under 28,000 kg without sacrificing agent capacity, and true pump-and-roll lets the crew start applying foam from the moment they're rolling toward an incident — not after they stop.

Allen + Co. specifies each Lion 4x4 with the corrosion protection, cooling and electrical packages needed for tropical airfield duty cycles, and commissions on-island with trained Caribbean technicians.
