New squad support units

[Brooklynalex32]

The fdny has placed bids for 25 squad support units. These units are equipped with 350 hp engines and 8in bumpers with airhorns so it's not the utility for the SSL s. Anyone know what they're for and why 25?

They are ordering 25 because there are or about 25 SOC Support trucks and CPC companies. There is going to be more use of the 2nd pieces during periods of high call volume, weather events etc......

Aha. from the specs it seems like their making them very custom and larger then the current SSLs.i guess the 2015 models will go to the CPCs

Thought some of these companies already got new ones with 4 doors (Example L-25) as apposed to the 2 man cabs (L-47 still has)

Or we talking bout something totally different

They seem more like the squad second pieces as of the specs
