Is that a crew compartment behind the cab?
What are the little quick attacks for? Do they really fight a going fire or are they more of a patrol truck looking for little fires like abandoned camp fires? I can't imagine that they hold much water.

Yes that is a crew cabin behind the cab. Seating for 3 or 4.
Our light or quick attacks hold around 500-600 litres and have a small pump (around 80Lpm) for mop-up and patrol duties.
