Feuerwehrfahrzeuge auf MAN 1

The book opens with an extensive photo gallery featuring MAN fire trucks delivered to German fire departments since 2015. Notably, it showcases the initial deployment of emergency vehicles based on the MAN TGE, prompting the author to dedicate a comprehensive chapter to this new series.
Klaus Fischer presents several profiles detailing intriguing fire trucks and their specific concepts built on MAN platforms.

The concluding chapters shift the focus internationally with two segments: the author's visits to New Zealand's fire departments utilizing MAN vehicles, and an exploration of archived records documenting the delivery of airport fire trucks to India. This meticulous compilation provides a unique insight into the diversity and global utilization of MAN fire trucks.

Portraits of fire engines on MAN chassis delivered to different countries are the reason why the book was conceived bilingually. The captions are in German and English and there is a summary in English for each chapter.
