Quote Notes Since 1989 for fire extinguishing and lifesaving for new aircraft Deployed. It is a vehicle with a much more futuristic design than the A-MB-1 and A-MB-2.
Manufactured by Tokyu Vehicle Manufacturing, it is Japan's largest chemical fire engine for airports, with a corrosion-resistant aluminum light alloy structural body mounted on a chassis capable of traveling on rough terrain (8x8 all-wheel drive, 900ps rear engine). The fire extinguishing system is remotely hydraulically operated from inside the driver's cabin, making it possible to spray water while following the accident aircraft. The water tank capacity is 12,500 liters, the chemical tank capacity is 850 liters, and it is equipped with a turret nozzle with a maximum firing range of 80 m and a discharge volume of 6000/3000 liters.



and they even mention Fukushima
Quote We were also dispatched to spray water during the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident.

Japanese Wikipedia calls the make Nissan Diesel based on the engine, but other sources (i.e. National Museum of Science and Nature) indeed lists Tokyu who did the coachwork... Not sure which make we should go with but we already do have Tokyu Vehicle Manufacturing as a make here on IMCDB :think:

Are these linked to those listed as just Tokyu?
/vehicles.php?make=Tokyu&model=
If so, I'd list all with the short name (the long name being rather the company name)
