\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On Tuesday afternoon, May 2, 2023, new CFR 2 was placed in service at Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU). The 2022 Oshkosh Global Striker 3000, 2000\/3000\/420\/550# was delivered in March. See gallery of Legeros pics<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It replaces a 2000 Oshkosh TI-1500, 1500\/210\/450#, which will be placed in reserve service as CFR 5. It’ll be the airport’s first reserve ARFF unit in a couple decades, at least. CFR 5 will be housed in a building at the fuel farm, where the ARFF foam trailer is also housed.<\/p>\n

With the new truck, the airport’s ARFF units are all yellow or green for the first time since 2000, when the three 2000 Oshkosh ARFF units were delivered. See fleet history and pics<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The airport fire station, built in 1986, was also modified to better-house the new truck. Two 12-foot bay doors were removed and the space combined to create a larger 25-foot bay door, where CFR 1 and CFR 2 are parked.<\/p>\n
