The new E507. The FRA (Fire and Rescue Association, volunteer and career leadership) developed this new standardized Engine spec (including the unique indented ladder storage). The intent is to have the pump module and body be laid out the same in all future purposes. The individual company can choose the cab manufacturer.
Currently E507, E511, E516, E518, E520, and E592 were designed with the new specs. It remains to be seen how they work for the individual engine companies.
