The Fast Attack Answer to Brush Fires
 
By Darley Team
 
In wildland operations getting water to the fire is half the battle. Fires can spring up anywhere and can grow out of control before they reach an area that standard apparatus would be able to access. Wildland firefighters need a system that can be mounted to any vehicle on hand or UTV. Darley produces a line of skid units called Fast Attack.

The Fast Attack 1 was designed and built for wildland, and quick attack fire suppression in mind. The skid comes with a 13 hp Davey two-stage pump with a 200-gallon Pro Poly tank and Hannay electric booster reel with 100’ of 1” hose. There is also an option to add a 10-gallon foam system to the unit. The Fast Attack units can be mounted to almost any vehicle or UTV.

The Fast Attack line gives wildland firefighters the flexibility they need to combat wildfires, and brush fires where a typical apparatus wouldn’t be able to navigate.
