Scania's low-emission engines will be used in airport rescue and firefighting vehicles at airports in the US. The company will deliver 24 16-litre V8 engines for use in Oshkosh Airport Products' airport rescue and firefighting (ARFF) vehicles Striker 6×6 and Striker 4×4. The engines are optimized for the Oshkosh powertrain, and each complies with Tier 4 final emission legislation. The ARFF vehicles will be put into service at John F. Kennedy International Airport, Newark International Airport, LaGuardia International Airport and Teterboro Airport, which are located in New York and New Jersey.
Art Schuchert, Sales & Marketing Director for Scania USA, is keenly anticipating the two companies' collaboration on this deal, which he believes marks the start of a new journey in the partnership with Oshkosh.
