As befits the role of a modern fire and rescue service, the London Fire Brigade maintains and operates a large fleet of specialist appliances and vehicles that attend incidents in support of the main pumping appliances. This specialist fleet currently includes a number of Command Support Units that are deployed to fires requiring 4 pumps or more, as well as specialised incidents.
In this section of the website, you will find our images of both the current Optare Solo and former Mercedes-Benz Atego Command Support Units captured at various locations.
