Oshkosh has delivered 10 Oshkosh Striker 8x8 ARFF vehicles with premium features
Oshkosh has delivered 10 Oshkosh Striker 8x8 ARFF vehicles with premium features to the brand-new Beijing Daxing International Airport. The airport opened on September 25, 2019, just six days before the 70th anniversary of the People's Republic of China.
First-hand feedback
Oshkosh Airport Products has a long history serving airport rescue and firefighting teams in China, as their products are currently protecting 65 of the major and mid-size airports across the country.
"We are honored to work with the fire department at the Beijing Daxing airport and are committed to delivering world-class customer experience," said Erik Lampe, Vice President and General Manager of Oshkosh Airport Products.
Erik Lampe adds, "Our Striker 8x8 and Striker Simulator display at China Fire gives attendees the opportunity to learn about the superior attributes of the apparatus. It also allows us to gather first-hand feedback and learn about the unique needs of those who use our equipment."
First virtual resources
In addition to the Striker 8x8 display, the Striker Simulator offers attendees an opportunity to experience one of the first virtual resources for training firefighters. It was developed specifically for airport rescue and firefighting teams to simulate real-life situations, and to properly use the critical equipment that helps save lives.
The system incorporates video footage and illustrated environments of Striker trucks (4x4, 6x6, and 8x8) in action, with views both inside and outside the cab, along with a full audio track. Oshkosh Airport Products representatives, products, and technology will be present at Oshkosh’s booth (at booth E2-9) at China Fire 2019.
